National Sleep Foundation Drowsy Driving Survey
Thursday 29th October, 2026
The National Sleep Foundation published a survey finding that 145 million Americans have driven while so tired they struggled to keep their eyes open. The stark figure, paired with warnings about the risks of drowsy driving, gave news outlets a clear public-safety story to report.
Why it worked: It paired a giant, attention-grabbing headcount (145 million) with fatality stats, reframing a common habit as an urgent public-safety threat.
The lesson: Consider quantifying a widespread but shrugged-off behaviour into a shocking national headcount, then tie it to hard risk or mortality data.
