The frequencies of sister chromatid exchanges (SCE) in the group of 18 drivers were studied. The habit of cigarette smoking was considered. Mean values of SCE/metaphase between the group of drivers and the reference group and in the comparison with nonsmoking and smoking drivers did not show significant differences. Several cells with extremely high values of SCE (19-25) were observed in the group of smoking drivers.
