Abstract

Stroke patients were compared with "normal" drivers. On public roads stroke patients exhibited special difficulty in entering and leaving motorways and handling traffic at roundabouts. On private roads stroke patients were relatively unaware of other vehicles, exhibited difficulty in reversing, had difficulty in doing two things at once in an emergency and had difficulty in placing their car accurately on the left. Analysis revealed variables that might be used to rate stroke patients on their driving skills.
