Newspaper article--SA

Post by karessamom » Thu Oct 22, 2009 5:33 pm

I going to have to take some time and upload this interesting article i found in the paper today. The headline was "Fatal Utah Accident cited in Sleep apnea disorder Alert" Basically what it's urging is that all people involved in transportation--ie truck drivers, airline pilots, ship captains (or operators) train engineers, bus and cab drivers etc. be tested for sleep apnea as a requirement for their operators licenses. They're finding out that alot of accidents being caused by sleepy drivers are due to the drivers having sleep apnea.
