Abstract

There is limited evidence supporting the recommendation that drivers with insulin-treated diabetes need to start journeys with glucose90 mg/dL. Glucose levels of drivers with type 1 diabetes were monitored for 3 weeks using masked continuous glucose monitoring (CGM). Eighteen drivers (median [IQR] age 40 [35, 51] years; 11 men) undertook 475 trips (duration 15 [13, 21] min). Hypoglycemia did not occur in any trip starting with glucose90 mg/dL (92%
