In this study with adolescents who have attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) or autism spectrum disorders (ASD), and controls, participants will complete a simulated driving evaluation (clinical tests of vision, cognition and motor skills, and operating a driving simulator). This study is critical to understand the driving performance deficits in adolescents with ADHD or ASD and will inform future interventions addressing skills needed to obtain a driver's license.
