We will be reviewing the stories affecting trucking today and hoping some drivers will join us for a discussion regarding how enforcement of the sleep apnea rules are affecting them and what they are doing to comply with the physician's recommendation. Are there more 3 month med cards being issued? Are the physicians over stepping their authority? Did FMCSA not give enough guidance to physicians? Have you tried to be proactive and address any issues prior to going for your DOT physical? What's working, what's not? Have you searched the web for miracles? Why is it that many drivers have bad eating habits, lack of time to exercise or just plain can't pass physicals? Drivers? Companies? DOT? Physicians? Truck Stops? I believe all share the responsibility. Let's discuss it?

So many questions so little time. Please join us whether you are a driver, a safety professional, a company or a regulatory agency for this hot topic!
Open discussion regarding the driver qualification file FMCSA requirements. What should be included or not. Should your driver qualification be user friendly or bare bones to only meet regulations? Pro and cons of information contained in the driver qualification file.
