The effect of alcohol consumption on driving performance was examined in two studies. In the first, six subjects drove for two hours over a closed-loop, two-lane course. In the second, 12 subjects drove for two hours in a driving simulator. In both studies, target blood alcohol concentrations (BAC) were 000%, 007%, or 0-12%. Multiple measures of vehicle control, tracking and information processing were recorded. In general, the standard deviations of these measures increased as BAC increased. Differences in the results between the two studies were related to differences in facilities (i.e. closed course vs. driving simulator).
