ABSTRACT:
A control system comprises a memory for storing questions and answers determinative of mental incompetency of a potential driver to drive. A display displays the questions. A keyboard is provided for the driver to answer the questions. The control system determines if the correct number of answers is lower than a predetermined value thereby indicating mental incompetency of the potential driver to drive. In such event a signal is provided so that the engine is prevented from starting or a clutch is prevented from engaging so the vehicle cannot be placed into an operational driving condition.
