    Fatigue was my big one when I was a trainer.

    Dozing off at the wheel was an immediate fail / removal from my truck.

    Always let them know its perfectly fine to need a break, just to let me know and we can swap or take a break to let them rest.

    But if youre training and you push so hard youre falling asleep at the wheel, youre bound to kill someone once solo.
