Safe Path
Driving Solutions

We’re dedicated to supporting safe, informed driving decisions with compassion and expertise, while providing expert guidance every step of the way.

Our Mission

At Safe Path Driving Solutions, we understand the importance of driving. Driving often represents independence, freedom, and a sense of self. We also recognize the concerns of families, physicians, and licensing agencies when individuals face physical or cognitive changes. Our aim is to keep safe drivers independent while supporting individuals when the time comes to retire from driving.

Evaluation Process

We conduct comprehensive driving evaluations consisting of both in-home and behind the wheel portions. The evaluation is performed by an Occupational Therapist and Driving Rehab Specialist with over 12 years of clinical and in-home experience.

The Evaluation Includes:

Safe Path Driving Solutions’ services include a clinical evaluation usually done in the home and a behind the wheel evaluation performed in the evaluator’s vehicle, which is equipped with a safety passenger brake and additional mirrors to ensure the individual’s safety.

Cognitive Assessment

Additional evaluation tools are often used and are tailored to address specific concerns.

Post-Evaluation Recommendations

Once the comprehensive driving evaluation is completed, we provide recommendations to the individual, family, physician, and state licensing agency regarding the individual’s driving risk and fitness to drive.

At Safe Path Driving Solutions, we prioritize safety above all else, but we do not take the recommendation to retire from driving lightly. We understand the impact that no longer driving has on an individual's ability to meet physical and social needs. This recommendation is handled delicately and professionally, accompanied by suggestions for community and family resources to support the client’s needs.
