Abstract

The usefulness of a Driver Vision Tester (DVT), as a licensing screening device was evaluated by administering the tests to 351 accident-involved drivers and 149 drivers not involved in accidents. The DVT was evaluated in terms of its (a) reliability, and (b) practically, and (c) predictive validity of accident involvement. The results suggest that the DVT is a reliable method for measuring most of the visual functions included in the battery.
