A woman scarred for life after a man suffering severe mental health problems crashed his car into hers has called for a review of the issuing of driving licenses. She also wants guidelines around the declaration of extreme mental health conditions to be backed by legislation. And she wants people with severe mental problems to have their license eligibility to be assessed at frequent intervals. Drivers are also supposed to report vision and or hearing disabilities and serious psychiatric illness or mental health problems. Mental health is not listed in a legal disclaimer attached to the RSA's guidelines.
