The Assessment Centre for Driving Aptitude (BfF) is an institution in Germany responsible for assessing the driving aptitude of individuals. The BfF is administered by the Federal Highway Research Institute (BASt) and is located in several cities in Germany. Only a BtF is authorized to conduct an MPU.
The Federal Office for Disease Control and Prevention (BfF) generally conducts fitness-to-drive tests when individuals have been found to be inappropriate in traffic or when there are doubts about their fitness to drive. This includes individuals who have been caught for alcohol or drug abuse, as well as individuals with certain illnesses or disabilities.
The BfF examination typically consists of several parts, which may vary depending on the individual case. These include a medical examination, a psychological examination, and a test of driving skills.
The results of the investigation will be published by the BfF in the form of a Report and forwarded to the responsible driving license authority. The latter then decides, based on the report, whether the person has the necessary driving ability or whether further measures are necessary.
It's important to note that an investigation by the Federal Office for Motor Vehicles (BfF) does not automatically result in the revocation of a driver's license. Rather, the purpose is to assess the person's fitness to drive and, if necessary, make recommendations for further measures to ensure road safety.
