Abstract
Sixteen post-stroke, hemiplegic patients, who requested that they be allowed to return to driving, were extensively evaluated by a physiatrist, psychologist, occupational therapist, and driver training specialist. After they completed a driver training program, the patients were divided into three groups based on their driving program success and follow-ups. Significant differences in the psychological test results were found between Group I (those who drove without any difficulty) and Groups II and III (those who drove limited distance or who failed driver training). Results suggest that patients with significant cognitive and perceptual problems who take training and limit their driving can be safe drivers when they return to driving.
