Abstract

The discussion on topics like post-schooling and rehabilitation of motorists has intensified the contacts between advocates of traffic law and traffic psychologists in the last years. Since the driver's licence on probation has been introduced, the points of contact between driving licence law and theory of driver's qualification have become more distinctly visible. In the legal institution of driver's licence on probation the driving licence law relies on the changeability of the driving beginner by means of post-schooling. This continues the development of the legal aim of improvement besides the prevention. The concept of "changeability" has entered into the expert opinion on driver's qualification since the middle of the 1970's and it has been tested in the psychological rehabilitation of motorists. It is widely realized, that the inherited idea of 'character' is not useful for a flexible guaranty of traffic safety by an administrative authority. The driving qualification rather has to be seen as a biographical quantity. Motorists are submitted to a change of experience. Among conspicuous drivers the risk of a renewed conspicuousness is in the centre of view. There are possibilities of influence on this risk with some measures. The author shows the basis and the consequences of this concept of a biographical qualification. It bases on the concept of a driver, who is able to learn and is self-responsible and who needs specific back-channel informations. But the author also shows the limits of changeability of a motor-driver.
