'Garage bedrooms' with wi-fi and sleep masks offer tired drivers place to rest - and could save lives.

A unique roadside stop for sleepy drivers hopes to cut the number of accidents on a particularly boring stretch of road. An innovative new idea for long-distance travellers could be set to save lives - offering mid-journey 'garage bedrooms' for those who spend long hours on the road.

The ingenious idea has married up luxurious home comforts with an anytime car parking spot, offering dozy drivers the chance to rest up.

It's designed to enable them to tackle the trip, refreshed the next day.

Signified by a giant billboard, the rest stop, created by home improvement store Sodimac Homecentre, is on display in Peru.
Tired drivers can park for free and nap in a sheltered single-car garage decorated like a bedroom, provided with the service of 24/7 security and amenities such as a wi-fi connection and sleep masks.
