Driving Health Inventory

Description
The Driving Health Inventory is a battery of computer-based performance tasks including measures of visual acuity, leg strength and stamina, head/neck flexibility, short-term and working memory, visualization of missing information, visual search with divided attention, and visual information processing speed. The Driving Health Inventory is administered as a first tier screening for fitness to drive.7
Where to Obtain
The Driving Health Inventory is offered in two purchase forms:
- Online fee-per-use basis at $10.00 per screening.
- Fixed-price annual software license that permits a single copy of the program to be used an unlimited number of times may be purchased for $500.
If a user anticipates more than 50 driver screenings in a year, the fixed-price, unlimited use option is more economical.
