In this episode Brenton talks with DAT Principal Analyst and Sleep Expert Dean Croke. Dean spent over 20 years as a driver and trucking company owner in Australia before coming to the US as a consultant, analyst and sleep expert. Sadly, two drivers at Dean's trucking company passed away in crashes due to falling asleep behind the wheel. These tragedies led Dean to devoting his life to studying sleep and he is passionate about passing along this information to anyone in the trucking industry who will listen. Brenton and Dean talk about how sleep cycles work, what prevents good sleep, why it is important that spouses and families understand why a driver needs to sleep, and what drivers can do to improve their sleep. Dean still drives from time to time and has a super cool Peterbilt he calls "The Grumpy Pete."
