Stroke & Acquired Brain Injury & Driving Safety

Stroke & Acquired Brain Injury driving assessment

Overview

After a stroke, even if physical movement returns, cognitive, visual, or attention deficits may linger. RSA guidelines require a post-stroke medical report, and many people must cease driving temporarily.

The decision to return to driving should be based on functional ability — not just a clinical diagnosis.

DAI specialises in post-stroke driving assessments, looking at memory, concentration, coordination, and real-world driving performance.

Our reports help determine when it is safe to return, and whether any restrictions or supports are needed.
