These guidelines were initially developed by a team at Newcastle University comprising John-Paul Taylor, Kirsty Olsen and Paul Donaghy. A working group was convened to further develop the Guidelines and produce a final document. The purpose of these guidelines is to provide clinicians with an understanding of their legal and clinical responsibilities, as well as a framework on which to base appropriate management of those who drive with a diagnosis of dementia or mild cognitive impairment. The guidelines have been designed to provide assistance to clinicians rather than be prescriptive and can be adapted for local use. They are designed for use within clinical and community settings as a part of a comprehensive clinical assessment and formulation, rather than as a stand-alone assessment focussed solely on driving safety.
