abstract="One hundred and eighty four engine-drivers aged 21-60 years were examined; 91 from them provoked an accident not stopping the train in front of the &quot;Stop&quot; signal; 93 constituted a control group. Compared was the status of the visual system and the efficiency of the visual functions such as: binocular vision, color vision and asthenopia, mesopic vision and the sensitivity to glare. In engine-drivers of the &quot;accident-prone&quot; group one observed an increased sensitivity for glare. The authors suggest it would be necessary to introduce to the qualification examinations for engine-drivers the evaluation of the sensitivity to glare and of the visual ability in mesopic conditions.<p /><p>Language: pl</p>",
