Here's where you can Stop, Revive and Survive on the roads this AFL Long Weekend.

Victoria State Emergency Service (SES) volunteers will conduct Driver Reviver sites on the Hume Highway over the AFL Grand Final Long weekend to help motorists reach their destinations safely.

The national Driver Reviver campaign has been running for more than 20 years with one objective: to reduce road collisions by alleviating driver fatigue.

Fatigue is one of the big killers on our roads and SES Driver Reviver sites offer a place for motorists to take a break and enjoy a free cup of tea or coffee and some biscuits.

SES Volunteers contribute thousands of hours each year towards providing Driver Reviver as a way to reduce driver fatigue and resulting car crashes.

SES North East Operations Manager Neil Payn said Driver Reviver provides an incentive to take a break in a secure environment, where the refreshments are free.

"Our Volunteers would much rather give you a free cup of tea or coffee and have a friendly chat than respond to a motor vehicle accident further down the road," he said.

"The simple message is Stop, Revive and Survive."

Victoria SES is the largest provider of road accident rescue services in Victoria.
