Roger is a 45 year old man with a brain injury resulting from a motorcycle accident two years ago. Following the accident, Rogers' brain was so swollen he had surgery to remove part of his skull. He has recovered from most of his physical injuries but is still affected from the brain injury. When Roger walks he shuffles his feet and his left arm shakes making it difficult to perform manual tasks. He has not been able to drive since the accident because he loses his sense of direction rather easily. Which lobe of his brain is likely affected?
