Not all changes that occur with age indicate an individual is not able to drive. Participate in this module to understand common reasons which warrant a recommendation for a comprehensive driving evaluation. Learn how to screen and assess older drivers at risk for unsafe driving, enhance older drivers’ driving safety and help older adults ease the transition to driving retirement.

This learning module, created by Peggy Barco and Valerie Gruss, discusses driving safety. By the end of the module, learners should be able to: (1) identify common reasons that warrant a recommendation for a comprehensive driving evaluation; (2) review evidence-based screening and assessments that identify impairments which can put older adults at risk for unsafe driving; (3) discuss interventions and remediation available for older adults to enhance their driving safety; and (4) recognize evidence-based recommendations to ease the transition to driving retirement. Registration is required to access the material but there is no charge.
