Alcohol, Thioridazine and Chlorpromazine Effects on Skills Related to Driving Behaviour

Abstract
The environment of most out-patients involves driving and also drinking. ‘Tranquillisers’ alone or in conjunction with alcohol may contribute to the road toll (Milner, 1969). Animal laboratory and human studies indicate that a variety of drugs may potentiate the effects of alcohol (Forney and Hughes, 1968; Milner, 1970).
