abstract="Medical impairment poses a potential threat to the driver and others who share the roads, if the condition is not identified and controlled. In Texas, the Texas Medical Advisory Board evaluates a driver's medical condition to determine its effect on the individual's driving ability. This study attempted to determine if the board's initial review resulted in an improvement in driving performance of persons whose medical conditions were evaluated. The results show a 46% reduction in the number of violations and a 53% reduction of collisions in the study population after the review. The control population showed a 17% violation and 3% collision reduction for the same period.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
