- Observable change in emotions: undue nervousness behind the wheel.
- Rapid onset of fatigue from driving
- Medical conditions that may directly, or may as a result of medications, impair driving.
- Observable decline in mental abilities: no longer using turn signals or mirrors; driving more slowly; becoming confused in simple driving situations;getting lost; making poor or slow decisions in traffic.
