Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As people age, their physical, visual, & cognitive abilities may decline, making it more difficult for them to drive safely. Older drivers are also more likely to suffer injuries or die in crashes than drivers in other age groups. These safety issues will increase in significance because older adults represent the fastest-growing U.S. population segment. This report examined: (1) what the fed. gov¿t. has done to promote practices to make roads safer for older drivers & the extent to which states have implemented those practices; (2) the extent to which states assess the fitness of older drivers & what support the fed. gov¿t. has provided; & (3) what initiatives selected states have implemented to improve the safety of older drivers. Includes recommendations. Illustrations.

Book Assessment of Traffic Control Practices with Respect to Older Drivers

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When signage on a rural highway in Kansas was upgraded, the State received some comments that begged the question of whether modern highly reflective sign sheeting materials could, in some circumstances, actually decrease the legibility of signage, particularly for older drivers. Older drivers tend to have poorer visual acuity, requiring larger signs to provide the same legibility as found in a younger population. However, older drivers also tend to be more sensitive to glare and slower to recover from glare blindness. This study was conducted to determine if highly reflective sheeting could cause a reduction in sign legibility due to veiling glare, especially in older drivers. The test was conducted using 60 drivers in an actual automobile and full scale signs and distances. The data collection was conducted in a test facility where external factors could be eliminated, isolating the variables of greatest interest. Older drivers as a whole were found to exhibit poorer performance in terms of visual acuity and response time, but no detrimental effects attributable to glare were observed.
