Summary
Zopiclone, a widely used hypnotic drug, is frequently found in blood samples taken from drivers suspected of driving under the influence. In this study, the investigators aim to correlate zopiclone serum concentrations with degrees of driving impairment in healthy volunteers by use of a validated driving simulator. The investigators also aim to compare their results with the results from a previous study that investigated zopiclone impairment of cognitive and psychometric tests.
