So, now the tired drivers are driving to work in the dark. I don't see any solution making a real difference. There's less day in the winter. Any solution at all will piss off 3/4s of the population.

Seems like the only real solution is shortened work days.

There's usually 8 hours of sunlight during the day on the shortest day of the year, a bit more or less depending on latitude, but not by a lot. Make those 8 hours 9-5. Congrats, you've solved the problem, the average day will have a bit to a lot of light before and after the standard work day.
