Read our Stroke research guide →This study is testing whether targeted driving simulator training helps stroke survivors improve their driving skills. You would practice four critical driving abilities—staying in your lane, managing speed, avoiding obstacles, and paying attention to your dashboard—over a 3-week period. The researchers will compare your driving performance before and after the training, and again 6 months later, to see if the practice helps you drive more safely.
Many stroke survivors struggle with driving after their illness, which can affect their independence and quality of life. This study wants to find out if practicing specific driving skills in a safe, simulated environment can help veterans regain confidence and safety behind the wheel.

You would attend weekly driving simulator sessions for 3 consecutive weeks, practicing four key driving skills each time. After a 1-week break, you would then do a second 3-week training period with a different type of practice. After each training block, you would take a short driving test in the simulator to see how you're doing. Finally, you would return 6 months later for a follow-up assessment and brief questionnaire to see how well the improvements hold up over time.
