The Motorway Police N-5 Central has established 30 wake-up points at various locations on national highways.
The initiative has been taken to refresh tired drivers to avoid road accidents caused by dozing at the wheel. Motorway police officials stop all kinds of vehicles at these spots for some time to help drivers freshen up, said DIG Traffic Mirza Faran Baig while inspecting a wake-up point here on Saturday.
Being fatigued significantly increases the risk of a crash. He stressed the need for washing faces, consuming hot beverages, and taking short walks to remain alert.
