This outline paper concerns the use of neuropsychological and traffic-psychological tests to determine fitness to drive after a period of neurological rehabilitation. Only one parameter out of five in the neuropsychological tests was able to discriminate patients who were fit to drive, whereas four out of five parameters in the traffic-psychological tests discriminated correctly. However, the authors point out that even patients with positive test results are not necessarily able to cope with complex real traffic situations.
