The purpose of this guideline is to support healthcare professionals in assessing a driver’s fitness to drive in different situations. The guideline is based on legislation on fitness to drive, and it was drawn up by Traficom together with experts of clinical specialities. However, this document is not a diagnostic guideline or a handbook intended for specialities. Most driver health assessments are indeed carried out in primary health care and occupational health care services. The guideline sets out criteria for the clinical assessment of fitness to drive in healthcare services and provides grounds for discussing issues related to fitness to drive with the individual and, if necessary, also justifications for a potential driving ban.
