Occupational Therapists evaluate skills and abilities necessary to safely and independently drive a motor vehicle. This program is designed for, but not limited to, individuals with dysfunction due to:

• traumatic brain injury
• stroke
• physical disabilities
• dementia
• other neurologic disorders

The evaluation includes assessment of:

• physical capabilities
• cognitive and perceptual-motor abilities
• reaction time
• visual acuity (including night vision)
• decision making skills
• behind the wheel assessment of driving skills and operation of a motor vehicle under the supervision of the evaluator in a dual-controlled car.

Following completion of the evaluation, recommendations will be made to the physician regarding:

• driving ability and safety
• need for adaptive equipment
• need for further behind the wheel training sessions.
