A lack of sleep can affect one\u2019s ability to focus, think clearly and react quickly, all necessary functions for driving effectively.<\/p>\n<p>The infographic below details some additional survey findings.<\/p>\n<p class=\"eig__disclaimer\">About the survey:<\/p>\n<p class=\"eig__disclaimer\">This survey was conducted online by Falls &amp; Co. on behalf of Erie Insurance from Feb 21 through Feb 24, 2025, among a nationally representative sample of 1,000 U.S. residents ages 18 and older who self-reported they held a current driver\u2019s license. Falls established the sampling quotas, designed the questionnaire, tabulated the survey responses, and managed the overall project. Falls used SightX (New York, N.Y.) to administer the survey via the internet, including mobile devices to U.S. panels who met the key demographic criteria. Our results are statistically weighted for age and U.S. Region to align the sample distribution with U.S. population characteristics per 2023 ACS 1-year estimates from the U.S. Census Bureau and 2022 estimates from the USDA Economic Research Service. This technique was used to mitigate the effects of oversampling that can occur when using online survey panels.<\/p>\n<p><em>ERIE\u00ae insurance products and services are provided by one or more of the following insurers: Erie Insurance Exchange, Erie Insurance Company, Erie Insurance Property &amp; Casualty Company, Flagship City Insurance Company and Erie Family Life Insurance Company (home offices: Erie, Pennsylvania) or Erie Insurance Company of New York (home office: Rochester, New York).\u00a0 The companies within the Erie Insurance Group are not licensed to operate in all states.
