Abstract

The authors examined the literature and made a systematic examination of driving tasks to devise tests for those visual parameters determined to be important to driving. After the tests were devised, they were evaluated by comparing test results with the past accident involvement of those tested. The authors report that there is no clear evidence of a relationship between poor night vision performance and high accident probability. Inadequacy of accident reports contributes greatly to this lack.
