Article 101-7Special Cognitive Assessments; Other Measures

第百一条の七(臨時認知機能検査等)

If a person 75 years of age or older (but only one who currently holds a license) engages in conduct, in connection with driving a motor vehicle or motorized bicycle, that violates a provision of this Act, a provision of an order under this Act, or a disposition based on a provision of this Act and that Cabinet Order prescribes as conduct readily occurring when cognitive function has declined, a public safety commission is to specially conduct a cognitive assessment for the person, except where the person has undergone a cognitive assessment or equivalent examination pursuant to Article 97-2, paragraph (1), item (iii) or (v), Article 101-4, paragraph (2), or paragraph (3) of this Article on or after the day three months before the day on which the person engaged in that conduct and in any other case that Cabinet Office Order prescribes as one in which the person need not undergo a special cognitive assessment.

公安委員会は、七十五歳以上の者(免許を現に受けている者に限る。)が、自動車等の運転に関しこの法律若しくはこの法律の規定に基づく命令の規定又はこの法律の規定に基づく処分に違反する行為のうち認知機能が低下した場合に行われやすいものとして政令で定める行為をしたときは、その者が当該行為をした日の三月前の日以後に第九十七条の二第一項第三号若しくは第五号、第百一条の四第二項又はこの条第三項の規定により認知機能検査等を受けた場合その他臨時に認知機能検査を受ける必要がないものとして内閣府令で定める場合を除き、その者に対し、臨時に認知機能検査を行うものとする。

When seeking to administer a cognitive assessment pursuant to the preceding paragraph, a public safety commission must notify the person subject to the cognitive assessment in writing that it will administer a cognitive assessment, pursuant to Cabinet Office Order.

公安委員会は、前項の規定により認知機能検査を行おうとするときは、内閣府令で定めるところにより、認知機能検査を行う旨を当該認知機能検査に係る者に書面で通知しなければならない。

A person who has received notice under the preceding paragraph must undergo a cognitive assessment or equivalent examination by the time the period counted from the day following the date on which the person received the notice (for a person who has a compelling reason that Cabinet Order prescribes for not undergoing a cognitive assessment or equivalent examination, the period obtained by excluding from that period the period during which those circumstances exist) comes to exceed one month in total.

前項の規定による通知を受けた者は、当該通知を受けた日の翌日から起算した期間(認知機能検査等を受けないことについて政令で定めるやむを得ない理由のある者にあつては、当該期間から当該事情の存する期間を除いた期間)が通算して一月を超えることとなるまでに、認知機能検査等を受けなければならない。

If a person who has undergone a cognitive assessment or equivalent examination pursuant to the preceding paragraph falls under the criteria that Cabinet Office Order prescribes as indicating a possibility that a decline in cognitive function will affect the person's driving of a motor vehicle or motorized bicycle, taking into account the results of that cognitive assessment or equivalent examination, the results of the cognitive assessment or equivalent examination that the person underwent most recently before the date on which the person underwent that cognitive assessment or equivalent examination, and other circumstances, a public safety commission is to conduct the training set forth in Article 108-2, paragraph (1), item (xii) for the person.

公安委員会は、前項の規定により認知機能検査等を受けた者が、当該認知機能検査等の結果、その者が当該認知機能検査等を受けた日前の直近において受けた認知機能検査等の結果その他の事情を勘案して、認知機能の低下が自動車等の運転に影響を及ぼす可能性があるものとして内閣府令で定める基準に該当するときは、その者に対し、第百八条の二第一項第十二号に掲げる講習を行うものとする。

When seeking to administer training as set forth in Article 108-2, paragraph (1), item (xii) pursuant to the preceding paragraph, a public safety commission must notify the person subject to the training in writing that it will administer that training, pursuant to Cabinet Office Order.

公安委員会は、前項の規定により第百八条の二第一項第十二号に掲げる講習を行おうとするときは、内閣府令で定めるところにより、同号に掲げる講習を行う旨を当該講習に係る者に書面で通知しなければならない。

A person notified as under the preceding paragraph must undergo the training set forth in Article 108-2, paragraph (1), item (xii) by the time that it has been a total of one month since the day following the date on which the person is so notified (other than any period during which the person has a compelling circumstance that Cabinet Order prescribes for not undergoing the training).

前項の規定による通知を受けた者は、当該通知を受けた日の翌日から起算した期間(講習を受けないことについて政令で定めるやむを得ない理由のある者にあつては、当該期間から当該事情の存する期間を除いた期間)が通算して一月を超えることとなるまでに、第百八条の二第一項第十二号に掲げる講習を受けなければならない。
