We have all complained about old people on the roads. It seems that anytime we are in a hurry there will inevitably be a senior citizen on the road in front of us. Instead of complaining about their slow driving be thankful they are slowing down and being more cautious.
I just added a news
article to my website with some truly enlightening information. It seems that older citizens are statistically safer behind the wheel than they used to be. There are several reasons for the decline in the number of injuries and deaths associated with senior citizens and auto accidents.
• They are limiting their driving to safer conditions and circumstances.
• With the addition of turn-arounds and left hand turning lights intersections that were once dangerous are less so now.
• Safer cars
• Increased use of seatbelts
• Driving programs for seniors
Having said all of this know that each individual is different. If you know of a senior citizen who is not a safe driver please encourage to give up their keys. There are several services the provide
taxi services to seniors. These make that act of giving up the keys a bit easier.
