Driving a motor vehicle is an important skill set. Its evaluation is relevant to patients who had a stroke. These patients struggle to get back to driving because of physical deficits, including challenges from neglect and apraxia and the risk of unexpected future complications like seizures. Advances in acute stroke management have led to improved survival after stroke, and, therefore, more people are expected to have poststroke epilepsy (PSE). It has become critical to determine which patient who had a stroke is at a greater risk of PSE and should consequently be warned about driving. Galovic et al originally developed the SeLECT score to predict the risk of PSE at follow-up.1 Schubert et al analysed the SeLECT data (n=4452 adults, nine centres) to determine the chance of seizure in the next year (COSY) and seizure-free interval (SFI).2 The authors should be congratulated because these data…
