Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Attentional focus is necessary for safe and effective driving, and a lack of sleep can decrease attention and increase the risk of accidents. Cortisol levels and REM rebound are not directly related to driving accidents, and hypnagogic sensations are associated with the transition between wakefulness and sleep, rather than with being sleep deprived.
