    Microsleep are very brief sleep episodes lasting 15 seconds or less where a person loses conscious control. According to Malaysian police statistics from 2011 to 2021, 1,305 fatalities were attributed to drivers experiencing microsleep while driving. Microsleep can be caused by conditions like sleep apnea, narcolepsy, or performing repetitive tasks for long periods. Symptoms include sudden body jerks, inability to recall the last few minutes, excessive yawning, and slow blinking. To prevent microsleep, one should see a medical expert if experiencing symptoms, get sufficient sleep and rest, avoid machinery when feeling sleepy, and listen to engaging audio to stay alert.
