ABSTRACT:
A device for preventing a car driver from dozing during a long distance driving to avoid an accident is described. The device comprises two separate parts electrically connected together by means of an electric cord. One of said parts comprises a housing attachable to the dashboard (instrument panel) of an automobile and contains therein an electric circuit energized by a battery current for producing pulsative signals which are transmitted to the second part mounted on the upwardly projecting back of a driver's seat for physical contact with the driver's back and to transmit said pulsative signals to the driver to keep him awake while driving a car or a truck. Said electric circuit further contains therein a branch circuit to furnish current to said second part which then produces stimuli that cause relaxation in the tired muscles of the driver in contact with said second part.
