    My father, after about 20 years otr has such bad sleep apnea he's almost non functional. He wrecked his dump truck a few months back because of it. He's gotten to where he nods off all the time. He nodded off and woke up barreling tword a family in a van. he put it in the ditch rolling it over with a load of asphalt. I never thought he'd drive again but apparently he;s back at it again.
