It depends of what you do with the groups... You have to write your own logic around them... For instance you have driver group, so in your code you let driver group access only page/controller fucntion and form they are allow and in those controller you control the flow of what they can do the way you want. The group only diserve the purpose to determine if a user is allow or not to do something...
So you can put a user at the same time in a group of driver and a dispatcher if you want. So if he want to behave like a driver he can, and when he want to behave like a dispatcher it can too... Hope it helps.
