I sent you a follow up yesterday as to why the DMV has sleep disordre patients on file. I forgot one
additional thing my husband suggested I tell you.

Twice this year I was stopped for speeding. Both times I recieved a ticket for 10 under what I actualy was
doing (you know the old 5 over is ok ha ha).
There were no questions asked or and reference to my sleep disorder or the fact I take Dexadrine (a very
stron anphedamine). I actualy forgot that they receive this information when they run my licence until I was
talking to my husband about you. So there you go I not only live it I have tested it out.

I did recieve a letter from the DMV to let me know 2 tickets in a 2 month period is not a good thing and that
only 8% of Michigan drivers fall in that catagory. Due to these tickets my insurance could be raised. Just to
bring to my attention in 10 years I had recieved 2 tickets, these two, and I possably should look for a
pattern, and slow down.

Also a copy of my driving record was sent. This is
standard procedure for anyone who gets more than 1
ticket within I beleive a 30 to 90 day period.

GO GET TESTED!!!
I hope I have helped put your mind to rest.
