Did you know?
In the next 20 years the number of elderly drivers (persons 70 & over) is predicted to triple in the United States. As age increases, older drivers
generally become more conservative on the road. Many mature drivers modify their driving habits
(for instance to avoid busy highways or night-time driving) to match their declining capabilities.
However, statistics show that older drivers are more likely than younger ones to be involved in multi-vehicle crashes, particularly at intersections.
