Abstract

Many drugs used therapeutically, and many used for non-medical reasons, can impair the skills needed for driving. The most profound effects occur with sudden onset of sleep caused by dopamine agonists; somnolence as a consequence of taking hypnotics, sedatives, and sedating antihistamines; and the disturbances of perception brought on by cocaine and other stimulants.
