| I'd like to hear driver's opinions on the safety issues involved with driver's working long days and the effect on reaction times and safety. Drivers are frequently asked to drive to distant cities for athletic events, field trips, etc. Not only do they have to drive up to 200 miles and back, they often have several hours to kill in between. My company sells a product called the Comfort Cot (www.comfortcot.com) to allow a driver to stretch out during their waiting time so that they can be fresh when they need to drive. But you should hear the screams when we talk to your supervisors - What! Sleep on the job!! Never!!! Wouldn't you think they would want a rested, alert driver driving their students and buses? |
