abstract="The following ailments of old aged are important in judging the ability to drive: restriction of visual acuity and of hearing, impairment of mobility, appearance of cardiac or circulatory disturbances or of diabetes, mental deterioration. Side-effects of drugs or stimulants (alcohol) may also have a negative effect on driving. As a rule an old person should give up occupational driving and avoid two-wheeled vehicles. He may, however, be able to drive a car up to an old age, but only if he does not over-estimate himself and if he observes the medical conditions which must take account of his personal situation.<p /><p>Language: de</p>",
