Abstract

This study has demonstrated that atropine affects driver behaviour in two situations involving known hazard, and one involving potential hazard. Tire more cautions behaviour in the first two could have many causes, the most likely being awareness of the drug's effect arid overcompensation for the fact that the hazard was obvious.
