Concerns over sleep aponea affected drivers
A major study has just found that one in four South Australian men suffer from sleep aponea, leaving them drowsy and sleep deprived.
What most people don't realize is that in severe cases doctors are required by law to report the condition to licencing authorities.

..leaving them untreated and occassionally resulting in assaults against health professionals.
