Just remember, we're in the so-called 'silly season', when there is a dearth of news: Parliament is in recess, businesses are on holiday and the movers and shakers are up to their tricks thousands of miles from our gloomy shores.
Yet the papers still have to fill their pages with something that will sell. And what better opportunity than to stop all this silly nonsense about sleep apnoea being a danger to drivers and other road-users! Just cut down on the booze and lose some weight, that's all you need to do - what's all the fuss about?
It was an accident, wasn't it? It could have happened to anybody.
Totally irresponsible journalism: the dreadful point is: people find motivation from what they read in the papers, so, if you've been worried about daytime sleepiness, here's the Sun telling you it's nothing to worry about. And who reads the Sun? - Lorry-drivers, for a start.

You get across the same point I was attempting to make but much more succinctly and so much better than my feeble effort.
