On-Road Evaluation (DORE)
DORE is a specialized on-road evaluation scientifically validated to identify cognitive abilities essential for safe driving. Working in tandem with the DriveABLE Cognitive Assessment Tool (DCAT), it focuses on providing a fair and objective assessment and not bad-habit errors that are common amongst experienced drivers.
- Healthcare professionals
- Licensing officials
- Driving schools
- Insurance companies
How It Works
DORE is performed by experienced, on-road evaluators on a standardized road course.
The DORE takes 30 to 45 minutes. The trained evaluator will guide the driver through the course, and mark down errors as they occur. All errors are standardized and coded for ease of recording.
After the DORE, any errors are entered into the DriveABLE software. An objective report is immediately generated by the system, and the results are available in digital or print form. Contact us to view a sample report.
A DORE course and related scoring system focuses on driving errors that signal cognitive impairment.
The course is designed to gradually increase a driver’s cognitive load and only use maneuvers that drivers commonly encounter.
The approach is set to protect competent drivers while flagging those with an evident decline in abilities.
Driving is a complex task. Our ability to drive safely can be impacted by many things such as medications, medical conditions, stroke, brain injury, dementia, diabetes and concussion. If someone’s ability to drive safely is in question, the DORE can help.

How does DORE differ from standard driver testing?
- Separates bad habit errors from errors caused by a decline in driver competence
- Uses scientifically validated computer algorithms and codes
- Assessors look for specific actions indicating cognitive decline
- Routes are developed based on scientific research to expose competence decline
- Course difficulty is standardized to ensure fairness for drivers in all locations
