The driver alert safety glove comprises a glove with a battery-operated drowsiness alarm coupled to the back of the glove. The drowsiness alarm comprises a control circuit, a first magnetized contact, a second magnetized contact, and a sound transducer in a housing on the back of the glove. The magnetized contacts are coupled to the material on the back of the glove such that when the driver's hand is attentively gripping the steering wheel the back of the glove is stretched and pulls on the magnetized contacts, causing them to separate. If the drive gets drowsy and relaxes their grip, the magnetic properties of the magnetized contacts draw them together and the contacts complete an electrical circuit. Completion of the electrical circuit causes the control circuit to emit an audible sound via the sound transducer to alert the driver.
