Hard braking events in bioptic drivers with central vision impairment

Bioptic drivers demonstrated nearly three times as many hard braking events per 1000 miles driven, but vision measurements did not predict hard braking. Bioptic drivers with poorer contrast sensitivity were more likely to drive faster than 65 mph. Further work exploring relationships among vision and driving safety in bioptic drivers is warranted.

Abstract

Bioptic drivers demonstrated nearly three times as many hard braking events per 1000 miles driven, but vision measurements did not predict hard braking. Bioptic drivers with poorer contrast sensitivity were more likely to drive faster than 65 mph. Further work exploring relationships among vision and driving safety in bioptic drivers is warranted.
