Drowsy Days. 250,000 drivers fall asleep at the wheel every day in the US. 30% of people report dozing off behind the wheel. 6,400 people die each year from driving drowsy. Losing 2 hours of sleep is equal to having 3 beers. False Info: Loud Music and rolling windows down will not protect you from drowsy driving. But a lemon will! Anson Williams figured this out after it saved his own life then did more research and developed an all natural product called Alert Drops you spray in your mouth that keeps you awake! Anson (who you might remember as Potsie Weber on “Happy Days) stops by the show today to explain. He’s continuing the efforts of his famous cousin (he called Uncle), Dr. Henry Heimlich (Heimlich Maneuver), by saving lives. He works with cities around the country to raise Drowsy Driving Awareness. Good story – important topic. Cool Product. Tune in to The Debbie Nigro Show to day 11-12Noon 1490 WGCH or WGCH.com anywhere. Live on TuneIn too.
BTW: These happy days, Anson Williams is a father of 5 girls, a celebrated & respected director and a recognized philanthropist and business man. He was recently honored by Congress, the CA State Senate, the City of Los Angeles and the LAPD for his efforts on Drowsy Driving Awareness. His Happy Days Cast and many other celebs and first responders across the country help him continue to raise awareness about the 4 Driving D’s — Distracted, Drugged, Drunk and Drowsy Driving. The latter of which is currently leading the
list of casualties in the U.S. today.
