Abstract:

This paper comments on the paper "Medicinal Drugs: Critical Review of Present Knowledge and Statements for Discussion" by Han de Gier (published in this same circular). The author is in full agreement with de Gier relative to the gaps in our present knowledge about medicinal drug impairment and driving. He concludes that more information is needed to define the problems to promote public awareness and to guide policy decisions aimed at promoting safe driving conditions for users of medications and others who use roadways.
