ICBC urges B.C. drivers to prepare for Daylight Savings Time

As we get ready to move our clocks forward an hour this Saturday night for the start of Daylight Savings Time, ICBC is asking drivers to make an effort to adapt to the time change to help reduce the impact it could have on their driving skills.According to an ICBC survey, 34 per cent of B.C. drivers admit that the time shift does affect them and make them feel less alert. Studies show that the switch to Daylight Savings Time can have a dramatic effect on disrupting our regular sleep cycle as it puts us out of sync with our circadian rhythm.
