pass result on the on road driving test (The driving results will be aggregated by principal component analysis to develop an overall Road Assessment Index. This method has been validated as a means of combining multiple independent variables into a composition score, representing overall driving performance of drivers. Pearson correlation and stepwise linear regression will be used to examine the relationships between clinical measures, off-road testing and the on-road driving ability of participants. Multivariate analysis will be employed to investigate the interacting effect of the different potentially contributing variables.[at point of testing]
