Abstract
The Austroads Fitness to Drive Guidelines were updated in 2022. Most of the focus to date has been on Part 2 of the Guidelines, which provide guidance as to specific medical conditions. Less attention has been paid to Part 1 of the Guidelines, which cover a medical practitioner's ethical and legal obligations. This paper addresses the imbalance by considering and amplifying the obligations discussed in Part 1 of the Guidelines.
