Older Driver Safety Awareness Week highlights the vital role that mobility and transportation play to keep older adults active in their communities.

They may also experience a decline in cognition. These health issues make it unsafe to drive. Older drivers are twice as likely to have a medical problem that makes it difficult to travel.*
