What Are Sleeper Trucks?
“Sleepers” generally refer to a railroad car with sleeping facilities which drivers can use when travelling overnight.
As early as the 1920s, drivers would use sleeping berths but often complained that these were not safe and comfortable. Back then, drivers worked in tandem and used whatever space they could in the cabin for sleeping while the other drives. This formula had been very successful which prompt both properties to call on vehicle manufacturers to make trucks with larger and larger sleeping cabins. With the growing demand, more car manufacturers heed to this call, offering custom truck sleepers that come with many amenities. It is estimated that by the year 2000, at least 70 percent of the new trucks produced in the United States had sleeper berths in them.
It only made sense of course, especially that the Department of Transportation created restrictions on truck driving hours for the safety of people and the drivers behind the wheel. Through the Office of Motor Carriers and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the DOT set requirements like braking standards, licensing standards for drivers, and maximum work hours for them, as well as the overall safety fitness of these interstate carriers.
With the limits set, drivers who had to transport things interstate are forced to stay on motels to sleep for the night. Not only was it expensive for them, they also lose sleep over thinking about their responsibilities on the things they are transporting and the truck as a whole. With the wide production of sleepers, they are provided with a space to spend their time off to rest after the maximum number of hours they are allowed to drive for the day.
