BTW, good call on the sleep apnea deal too!!!
Given the driver's apparent BMI and the statistics that correlate BMI and Sleep apnea, you are probably right. Of course the driver may already have a CPAP device and is using is effectively already.trees Thanks this. -
The driver should have asked the dispatcher if he thought that some amphetamines might be what's needed, and if the company would reimburse him....cause there was a guy selling some at the truckstop and this might be one of those times when he could really use em'....

I do have to say, I've talked a lot of tired drivers over the years, and he just honestly doesn't sound all that tired. Really, if your up to making a film and having a 15 minute discussion you could probably have pulled off 2 1/2 more hours of driving.
