fitness to drive assessment

Fitness-to-drive assessment: clinical, medical, and behavioral evaluation tools and procedures used to determine whether an individual is fit to drive, including on-road tests, screening batteries, and licensing/fitness decisions. Distinct from older_drivers and mci_dementia_driving, which describe populations and conditions; this tag is about the evaluation process and the fit/unfit determination itself, regardless of the driver's age or diagnosis.
