Mandatory sleep apnea testing IS NOT law. Companies like Concentra are backing it to make it law. That is why Abilene has stopped using them for our complete physicals. It's a long story, but suffice it to say, it's not a DOT regulation as of now.

And, they want you to sleep on your back. I can't, and never have been able to sleep on my back. It is a witch hunt. And all it will do is put good drivers out of work.Lonesome Thanks this.

I was thinking of when the change over to from local (state) control of dot medical cards to the federal control of the issue of medical cards. Meaning dr's had to be federally certified to issue medical cards. About three years ago, it was proposed that the requirement for sleep studies where going to be required. I never bothered to look into it because getting my physicals they never pushed the issue till now!

I'm in a small town in NE Texas on home time. I park, with permission, out of the way at our local Walmart. Most Walmarts are truck friendly. Some are not.
