Sleep disorders and disturbances are a serious issue in the senior population. Obstructions in the throat cause breathing problems and sleep apnea, which in turn affect wakefulness, heart health and a host of other body functions. More frighteningly, driving is affected as well. This
New York Times article titled
"Drowsy Driving a Major Hazard" writes that 4% of adult drivers have claimed to have fallen asleep at the wheel. Of these, a majority suffer from treatable sleep disorders.
Driving accidents involving a "drowsy driver" have claimed about 730 lives per year.
