The Health Condition of Motor Vehicle Drivers – A Key Factor for Road Safety

Summary/Abstract: The article familiarizes us with the requirements for the health status of motor vehicle drivers (MVS), which is key to the safety of road traffic. The focus of the analysis is placed on some specific health conditions requiring additional medical examination by specialized committees of the Transport Regional Medical Expert Commission (TOLEK) or the Transport Central Medical Expert Commission (TCLEK). At the moment, the main accompanying problem can be pointed out as untimely information about the health status of some drivers falling into the considered category. The lack of up-to-date and complete information, as well as a mechanism regarding their subsequent certification, could lead to difficult administrative service for issuing a motor vehicle driving license (SUMPS), as well as endanger the safety of road traffic participants. With some examples, the author has tried to illustrate the seriousness of the problem. To solve the information deficit, some proposals are made in the final part of the development.
