Comparative analysis and correlation of neck proprioception and function among car and motorcycle drivers: A cross-sectional study

The findings indicate that car driving is associated with poorer neck proprioception and higher neck disability compared to motorcycle driving. Notably, driving type, age, and driving duration significantly influenced neck proprioception and function. The results highlight the potential importance of proprioceptive training interventions to enhance neck function, particularly for older car drivers and those with prolonged driving experience.

Abstract

The findings indicate that car driving is associated with poorer neck proprioception and higher neck disability compared to motorcycle driving. Notably, driving type, age, and driving duration significantly influenced neck proprioception and function. The results highlight the potential importance of proprioceptive training interventions to enhance neck function, particularly for older car drivers and those with prolonged driving experience.
