Abstract

In road safety research, few studies have examined driving behaviour in chronic pain cohorts. The aim of this
study was to investigate driving behaviour among drivers experiencing chronic pain. We compared individuals
with chronic pain with age-gender matched healthy controls. Participants completed: (i) an anonymous online
survey that included participant demographics, transport characteristics, self-reported driving behaviour, and
pain characteristics (ii) a response-time hazard perception test and a verbal-response hazard prediction test for
drivers, and (iii) a driving diary in which participants recorded their driving over two weeks. The results showed
that participants with chronic pain were not significantly worse than controls for hazard perception and prediction
test scores, self-reported attention-related errors, driving errors, driving violations, and involuntary distraction.
Drivers with chronic pain did report significantly more driving lapses but this effect became non-significant
when variables confounded with chronic pain, such as fatigue, were adjusted for. We also found that participants
who reported particularly high levels of chronic pain performed worse in the hazard prediction test compared to
the control group (and this effect could not be accounted for by other variables associated with chronic pain). In
addition, participants with chronic pain reported significantly higher driving workload (mental demand, physical demand, effort, and frustration) compared with controls. The findings of this study provide new insights into driving behaviour in individuals with chronic pain and recommendations for future research in terms of driving
assessment and self-regulation strategies are provided.
