Hello.Do not remember what happened in the accident is normal after a head injury.Your child's doctor should inquire about various causes
of microsleep (intake of antihistamine or anti-anxiety drugs, lack of night sleep apneas....) and request adittional test, it he deems it necessary, to stablish right diagnosis and treatment.Until your child is not explored by his doctor, he should avoid driving, of course.I wish you good health.
