Common factors that can affect safe driving:

• Limited range of motion and strength
• Exaggerated startle reflex to loud noise
• Increased muscle tone
• Difficulty in coordinated movements
• Visual impairments (poor acuity)
• Trouble visually scanning or tracking quickly
• Learning difficulties
• Impaired judgment in complex situations
• Slow processing and reaction time

A driver rehabilitation evaluation will examine the strengths and weaknesses of each individual as related to the driving task. The goal is independent, safe drive. No modifications or vehicle selection should be made until the person has completed a driver evaluation.
