    New Zealand roads are about to re-enter a dangerous window as schools return for term one

    New Zealand roads are about to re-enter a dangerous window as schools return for term one


    A report from driver safety advocacy group Autosense - claims accidents linked to fatigue happen most between 7 and 8am, the hour children head to school.

    CEO, Charles Dawson, says fatigue is driven by our body clock - and it can be dangerous.

    Dawson says it's all about our physiology and fatigue is a factor in every vehicle with a human behind the wheel.
