Screening and assessment: Basic principles
high- and low-contrast visual acuity – to read signs, detect hazards, and guide the vehicle properly under high and low visibility conditions.
   
leg strength & stamina – to use the gas and brake pedals effectively for smooth control of vehicle speed, and timely response in emergency situations.
   
head/neck flexibility – to rapidly check in both directions for cross-traffic, and to look over the shoulder before backing, merging, or changing lanes.
   
short-term and working memory – to remember and apply all rules and regulations for safe driving, sign messages, route directions, and other trip information while simultaneously attending to traffic.
   
visualization of missing information – to recognize a whole object when only part is in view, helping a driver anticipate and respond earlier to emerging safety threats.
   
Background R & D for software product.
visual search with divided attention – to rapidly scan the roadway environment for traffic control information, navigational cues, and conflicts with other vehicles or pedestrians, especially at intersections.
   
How to order software.
visual information processing speed – to detect threats at the edge of the ‘useful field of view’ while maintaining concentration on what is happening directly ahead.
