Like an insurance, seems useless or expensive before an accident!
A racing mate of mine was a heart surgeon until recent retirement.
He is firmly of the opinion that the stress ECG is more likely to bring on a heart attack than anything else; he doesnt recommend it as a licence requirement and wrote to the MSA (as it was then)to say so.
