Abstract:
Driving is an activity which puts forward the question of whether the driver is able to competently fulfill the task or not. Driving is affected or altered by age and various illnesses and the driver may not always concede that his/her driving ability is affected by these. The examination of driver capability is an important target. This can be seen especially during car accidents when the driver is examined and it is discovered that he/she is aggressive, has poor vision, old age, is epileptic, or consumed alcohol or drugs.
