Seniors Can Drive Safely
Of course, you want to keep your senior driver driving, for as long as you can. Maybe you (the reader) are the senior driver. Either way, there’s a strong desire to keep on driving.
But only if it’s still safe, right? This book is written to help you/or your senior driver, avoid the dangers of the road. It takes you through the whole list of dangers and helps you know what to do about each of them.
No senior driver wants to give up or lose his or her driver’s license. To not have it any more changes a lot of things. No more independence. Somebody else has to take you to where you want or need to go. This book will help you/or your senior driver, postpone that day. It also has lots of tips for the senior driver to use the very next time he or she drives.
A senior driver has an extra responsibility. Why? Because in our senior years we cannot do the task of driving as well as we used to. Even if you’re still a good driver, many things change when you get up in years. These things make driving, for seniors, even more dangerous. But, be aware, that senior drivers have more accidents than any other age group except new, teen drivers. This should alert you that driving is dangerous, especially for the senior. Per mile driven, the fatality rate for drivers 85 years and older is nine times higher than the rate for drivers 25 to 69 years old.
