Do tractors with sleepers have smoke and carbon monoxide alarms? (Driver found dead.)

A diesel engine may not produce much CO but I'm not so sure about a webasto type furnace heater. But with those, I'm more worried about fire then emissions.

But regardless, I'd bet that particular driver in the OP was using some sort of device/fuel inside the cab for heat and it wasn't a diesel exhaust leak

 

Every night? 7 days/week? 10 hours at a time? Sleep in an unheated truck in the north? Are you serious? Do you really think that little of the trucker to treat them like animals? Maybe you can sleep in a sleeping bag all winter in a truck with no heat and report back to us in the spring how you fared.

 

Shakespeare had the right answer many years ago
much ado about nothing

 

I was overcome by ccarbon monoxide once due to an exhaust leak. At first I thought I was getting the flu.i was very sick. When the company realized what was going on they put me in a motel for several days to recover. This was a trade truck I was relaying so I wasn't familiar with it.

 

If my truck had a natural gas alarm. it would never shut off.

 

My wife and I bought one a year ago... that and a fire alarm....

 

Oh there's a bunch of other crap in it that can make you sick temporarily, but not make you dead like Carbon Monoxide will.
