London, UK (Times Online): Scientists in Norway have found that dyslexia can make people up to 30 per cent slower than normal to react when driving a car. Experts said that the study was exceptionally small, involving only 17 volunteers, and that more research would be needed to confirm the effect.
The results do, however, fit with those of other studies that suggest that dyslexia affects the way in which the brain processes sensory information and that this can have a negative impact on co-ordination and reaction skills.
