Samenvatting

Determination of fitness to drive in individuals with cognitive impairments usually relies on the performance of a comprehensive driving assessment, with off-road and on-road components. Although it might be argued that the ultimate test for determining fitness to drive would be an on-road driving evaluation, practically and financially this is not always feasible. There is a need for practical and simple screening tools that can identify those who are clearly safe or unsafe, or need evaluation on-road. This paper appraises the following paper: Kay, L.G., Bundy, A.C. & Clemson, L.M. (2009). Predicting fitness to drive in people with cogni-tive impairments by using DriveSafe and DriveAware. Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, 90, 1514—1522
