The first aim of this study was to verify if the same phenomenon occurs when driving is performed in a simulated road traffic situation. The second aim was to discover if this field also deteriorates as a function of the driver’s age and of...

They performed a very monotonous task during which they had to follow a vehicle either after a complete night of sleep or after one night of sleep deprivation.
