Abstract

Alcohol impairment of driving skills appears to be due to the information processing demands of a divided attention task. It is suggested that marihuana is less dangerous to the driving tasks than is alcohol, for the dose levels tested. It is possible, that marihuana causes brief dropouts of attention. However, such speculation must be tested before final conclusions regarding the possible dangers of marihuana to driving can be determined.
