    Look for drivers who are swerving in and out of their lane. Leave plenty of room to avoid collision. If possible, memorize their license plate number and call the police and report them when you can safely do so.

    Why do people use their driving/fog lights all the time?
    Community Answer
    In some cars, the headlights are wired to turn on when the car is on. Most of the time, people don't wire fog lights differently from the daytime running lights.

    How do I stop myself from falling asleep while driving?

    Get enough sleep before leaving, if possible. Try to avoid caffeinated drinks, because they don't actually replace your need for sleep. Also, take breaks regularly. You can stay focused by actively staying aware of your surroundings, for example by checking your mirrors often.

    If you're asking about deer, they are blinded (and incapacitated) by bright lights at night, so using regular headlights in an area where deer live is a good idea.
