Adolescent Sleep, School Start Times, and Teen Motor Vehicle Crashes

The main idea in this article was linking early school start times with sleepy kids & also teen sleep-related accidents. the author made good points & also had good statistical information that supported his argument like when the schools administered later start times and the student crash rates went down by 16.5%. this article can be related to the other articles that we have been reading because it’s about sleep-deprived teens & ways that it can be helped. i feel like this article can be related to current students lives because when i was in high school i would usually stay up late & have to get up fairly early the next day & drive to school, which was really tough when i was super tired. luckily i only had to take back roads to school so i rarely had to worry about other cars, but if it was a busy road, i probably would have been in more sleep related accidents…
