In the U.S., there are about 38 million licensed drivers over ; age 65; about 1/8 of our population. By 2024, this figure ; will DOUBLE to 25%. The current research is intended to ; address the driving capabilities of our older population, ; as accident and injury risk has been statistically shown to ; increase with advanced age. Our primary objective was to ; perform a preliminary Pilot Study (N=10) that allows our ; team to analyze the impact of supplementing traditional ; driver evaluation using state-of-the-art driving simulation ; technologies.
