Alberta Driver Fitness illegally demands DriveABLE assessment

Home > Senior Driving Issues > Alberta Driver Fitness illegally demands DriveABLE assessment

In this letter to a senior truck driver, Alberta Driver Fitness & Monitoring Officer L. Benson falsely indicates that a DriveABLE assessment is required to obtain his license. “In addition, succesfully pass the DriveABLE Assessment and have all results forwarded to this office for consideration of an appeal review.”

This is in direct contradiction to Olga Tavares’ statement, Director of Driver Fitness & Monitoring. “Alberta Transportation does not request that individuals complete a SIMARD MD or DriveABLE asssessment for renewal of their Operator’s License.”
