Description
Alan Mintz, Lesley Ross, Dustin Souders, and Despina Stavrinos study which drives older adults avoid in two thousand twenty-three. Age can change sight, strength, and thought, which makes some trips hard. The team did a second look at data from healthy drivers aged sixty-five to eighty-five. They also tested which skills predict who avoids which trips.
Bad weather, night driving, and rush hour were the most avoided trips. Driving alone and fast highways were the least avoided. Women avoided more trips than men. Poor body function also linked to more avoidance. Tests of thought and sight did not predict avoidance. The authors say aid should weigh sex and body function.
