Drivers should also be able to identify some of the symptoms of mental ill health and list methods to respond to such occassions. Drivers should also be able to define "wellbeing" and identify things that could impact negatively on their wellbeing - this should encourage drivers to think about their driving behaviour, and analyse the impact of physical/mental wellbeing on driving practices.
