Drivers were considered exposed if a hospitalization for acute psychosis ended in the 6-week interval prior to the crash. We assessed the association between psychosis and crashes using a case-crossover design that controls for relatively fixed individual characteristics like personality and routine driving habits. We also conducted a responsibility analysis that accounted for changes in road exposure (kilometres of driving per month) that might occur soon after hospital discharge. Outcomes included involvement in a crash as a driver (for the case-crossover analysis) and driver responsibility for contributing to their crash (for the responsibility analysis). We used logistic regression to evaluate associations between these outcomes and recent hospitalization for acute psychosis, with adjustment for potential confounders.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Among 9,842 crashes in the case-crossover analysis, a hospital stay for acute psychosis ended in 199 pre-crash intervals and in 147 control intervals, suggesting acute psychosis was temporally associated with subsequent crash (2.0% vs. 1.5% of intervals; adjusted odds ratio (aOR), 1.32; 95% CI [1.05\u20131.66];\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.02). Among 819,348 drivers with a police-attended crash and determinate crash responsibility, 178 of 235 drivers with a recent hospitalization for acute psychosis and 440,543 of 819,113 drivers without recent psychosis were deemed responsible for their crash (75.7% vs. 53.8%; aOR, 2.38; 95% CI [1.75\u20133.24];\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u20090.001).\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The 6-week interval following a hospitalization for acute psychosis is associated with increased odds of crash and increased likelihood of driver responsibility for contributing to their crash.
