Had to reply to this just for the last sentence in the article - about the study news coming after one green tea! It tickled my sense of humour to wonder whether the green tea was supposed to help non-PDer's keep their driving licenses, or whether it was a plug for the green tea industry........

Non-motor symptoms of Parkinson's 'hinder driving'

Barchester (UK), 27/01/2011

A study, published in the Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery and Psychiatry found that common Parkinson's symptoms could mean that some people with Parkinson's cannot drive safely.

Researchers compared the driving performance of mild to moderate Parkinson's patients to those of similar ages and driving experience who did not have the condition.
