People with mild Alzheimer鈥檚 disease drive as well as teenagers, or as drinkers
just under the legal alcohol limit, according to a study by Richard Dubinsky of the
University of Kansas Medical Center in Kansa City (Neurology, vol 5, p 2205). He
believes that they should be allowed to continue driving. 鈥淭he risk is no different
than other segments of society that we tolerate,鈥� he says. But patients should be
carefully monitored: people who develop more serious Alzheimer鈥檚 have up to seven
times as many accidents as their peers, he says.
