abstract="With the increasing awareness of the need to avoid road accidents and their increasing toll of human life and suffering, greater interest appears to be taken in the question of fitness for driving, and the examiners who carry out the driving tests occasionally raise the question of fitness to drive at all, a question which the local authority may have to take up. In this they seek rightly the help of their psychiatric colleagues and of clinical psychologists.  <p>It would appear to be desirable that some fairly standard testing procedure should be evolved so that a measure of uniformity of practice can be achieved; possibly a battery of tests (with the minimum of apparatus) might form the basis of an examination, although it is impossible to reproduce the factors involved in the actual driving situation. If any of our colleagues have made a special study of this problem and evolved a technique for dealing with it, a publication of their views would be of great interest.</p>",
