The present report documents the results from task WP 1.7 of the project IMMORTAL. IMMORTAL is a project financed by the EC under the 5th Framework Programme for RTD, with the general aim of providing knowledge about driver impairments and their implications for road safety, in order to contribute to establishing better criteria for licensing as well as methods for detecting impairments among drivers. The present project is part of the work package on “Ageing, illness and diseases”, and deals with the impact of depressive illness on driving ability, and the changes in driving ability as a result from relief of depression by antidepressant treatment.
