Driver Training System
First Claim
1. A method for diagnosing driving skills in a driver of the class of vehicle drivers having impaired abilities, the method comprising the steps of:
- a) presenting a motor vehicle driver with at least one prerecorded audio/visual training session capable of diagnosing visual cognition, visual memory and visual recall abilities of said driver, wherein said training session comprises interactive driving simulations presented through four active visual zones;
b) digitally assessing driver actions in response to simulated driving situations presented by said interactive driving simulations;
c) creating a database that records said driver actions; and
d) developing a diagnostic assessment of the visual cognition, visual memory and visual recall abilities of said driver.

Abstract
The invention provides a computerized assessment system, as well as a method, that can be used for diagnosing driving skills in a driver of the class of vehicle drivers having impaired abilities. The system utilizes a) at least one prerecorded audio/visual training session capable of diagnosing the visual cognition, visual memory and visual recall abilities of a motor vehicle driver, where the training session comprises interactive driving simulations presented through four active visual zones; b) computerized means for digitally assessing driver actions in response to simulated driving situations presented by the interactive driving simulations; c) a database that records the driver actions; and d) a computer program capable of developing a diagnostic assessment of the visual cognition, visual memory and visual recall abilities of the driver.
