First, you must have personal knowledge of the condition, such as that acquired by a family member, doctor, judge, or law enforcement officer. You will then need to complete a Request For Driver Review form. This will permit us to conduct an investigation concerning the driver's driving and health issues. Please see the bottom of the form for the mailing address and make sure to mark the envelope “Attention Medical Desk".

Driving and Health

I know someone who shouldn't be driving because of health reasons. What do I do?

If I submit the Request For Driver Review form, can I remain anonymous?

If I submit the Request For Driver Review Form, under what criteria must it be submitted?

I have been requested to submit a Medical Report concerning the status of my health to the Department of Public Safety. I can't get my medical report in on time, what should I do?
