What should you do if you experience velocitation?

Experiencing velocitation is a phenomenon where a driver feels that they are moving at a slower speed than they actually are, usually after being on a long drive or traveling at high speeds for an extended period. This disorientation can lead to a false sense of security regarding one's speed, which increases the risk of accidents. Taking a break and resting your eyes helps reset your perception and allows you to better assess your speed and situation. Stopping and resting also provides an opportunity to refocus on the road, ensuring that you are alert and aware of your surroundings before continuing your drive. This approach is crucial for maintaining safety on the road, especially after periods of high-speed travel where velocitation is more likely to occur.
