Abstract

A series of 164 controlled driving tests were monitored in an attempt to identify changes in driving performance after low doses of alcohol. The performance of volunteer drivers under fairly realistic conditions was compared before and after alcohol intake. A significant deterioration was found at a time when a control group showed improvement. The authors feel that this study raises some further questions about the validity of the 80 mgms/100 ml legal limit for driving.
