AAA has developed its list of best practices and recommendations for MABs based on the NHTSA- AAMVA study findings (AAA, 2004). They should take the lead in defining how medical conditions and functional impairments affect driving defining medical assessment and oversight standards improving awareness and training for healthcare providers, law enforcement, and the public advising health care professionals how drivers can compensate for certain medical conditions or functional impairments and reviewing individual cases. MABs should play key roles as the links among health care professionals, licensing agencies, law enforcement, and the public. Most State MABs review individual cases, though this activity varies widely 5 States reported that their MABs reviewed 1,000 cases or more in 2012 while another 7 reviewed 10 or fewer cases (Lococo, Stutts, et al., 2017). These reports document the medical review structures and processes of all States and include case studies for several States. In 20, NHTSA published a series of reports on the analysis of the MAB implementation practices. MABs generally make policy recommendations on what licensing actions are appropriate for people with specific medical conditions or functional limitations. Thirty-two States have medical advisory boards to assist the licensing agencies in evaluating people with medical conditions or functional limitations that may affect their ability to drive (Lococo, Stutts, et al., 2017). Overall Effectiveness Concerns: This countermeasure is widely used however, there are no known studies evaluating the crash relevant effects of MABs. Effectiveness: † Quality varies considerably 1 Star Quality varies considerably
