Driving performance comparing older versus younger drivers.

CONCLUSIONS: Differences exist in driving patterns of older and younger drivers as measured by reaction times and driving simulator outcomes. These results are the first to compare these 2 specific adult age groups' driving performance as measured by a standardized driving simulator scenario. Identifying these differences is essential in addressing them and preventing future traffic injuries. PMID: 27326512 [PubMed - in process]
