Summary

Charcot Marie Tooth 1A (CMT 1A) is a common inherited disorder of the nerves in the body. The disease can result in difficulties with strength and balance as well as in foot deformities such as high arches, hammer toes, and tight ankles. Because of these difficulties, the disease may affect driving, especially because driving requires quick responses at times such as slamming on the brakes or turning the steering wheel quickly. The following study determines driving performance in individuals who have CMT 1A.
