    Take Fatigue Management seriously... it's not just applicable for long haul truckers !

    - Take a talkative mate...
    - $45 for a Pulse Oximeter, - and use it !

    Last resort.... O2 bottle and use it at 10K +

    Son in the transport industry tells of some new tech available for retro-fitting in Big Trucks. Total driver monitoring, registers body movement... degree of, velocity, head movement including eyeballs. Apparantly a 'must-have' if you want to win $$$$$$$ contracts.
