A driving rehabilitation assessment may be required as a result of a drive test with a Kansas examiner, after an accident or illness by your doctor or it may be required by the Kansas Medical Advisory Board (MAB) during a case review. A rehabilitation assessment will consist of a thorough report of your reaction time, divided attention, motor skills and drive test results which will be assessed by a facility of your choice. Simulator testing is not accepted as a drive test. If you choose to attend a rehabilitation drive facility (at your own cost), you must first have your physician provide you with a script authorizing the testing and submit it to the Medical/Vision Unit for review.
