Medical conditions and car crashes.

Abstract

Most previous studies of medical conditions associated with driver safety have focused on specific diseases. This analysis is based on a linkage of police report and hospital discharge data, and correlates various medical diagnostic categories and specific conditions with police determinations of driver culpability for all drivers admitted to Maryland hospitals during a 3-year period. Using odds ratios, various conditions have been identified which are associated with an increased risk of crash culpability. Further research is needed to confirm these findings, and to determine the role of the conditions vs. the possible influence of medications prescribed to treat these conditions.
