Sometime between 17.30 and 18.00 on 13 September, BBC Radio 4's Saturday edition of "PM" will consider the problem of sleep apnoea amongst HGV drivers. The coverage stems in part from my family's 22 August 2008 media release, posted here on Fortnightly Mailing, following Coroner Sumner's issuing of a Rule 43 Report to the Lord Chancellor calling for a toughening of the rule and procedures governing sleep apnoea and road haulage. Interviewees are likely to include my nephew's father, sleep apnoea expert Dr Dev Banerjee, as well as Colin Wrighton, the driver of the lorry that killed my nephew, who is now himself campaigning for action on the problem.
