Abstract

The case histories of five patients with cognitive disorders are presented and the policy in the assessment of driving performance is discussed. In accordance to recent consensus guidelines of an international working group on dementia and driving we recommend cessation of driving in case of dementia grade two or three on the Clinical Dementia Rating Scale. We deviate from these guidelines in case of dementia grade one. We propose to advise a road test.
