Alan Dunn feed back on raising awareness

Driver: ALAN DUNN
Route: S/HALL, Glasgow
Vehicle: SD10 ACX Story: SLEEP APNOEA

Has there been any reaction regarding the van

• Still getting attention wherever I go with the sleep apnoea van.
Stopped at lights appears to give people time to read the stories on the van or when I am Parked on a main road to visit a shop.

The other day I was stopped in a traffic jam & a guy approached the window on the driver’s side leaving him standing on the road. I opened the window & the guy who was in his late 50’s-early 60’s said he could not believe what he was reading on the van.

I asked him why & he replied that about 30 years ago he worked with a guy who constantly fell asleep & that he was always having wee knocks whilst driving his car.

He added that the guy used to offer him a lift to & from work but he always declined because he knew he had so many minor accidents with his car. He said that quite a few of his colleagues accepted a lift but he never did.

He also said he found out years later that this guy died as a result of a car crash & he said reading the van has made wonder if his old work colleague suffered from sleep apnoea.
