This symposium will describe results for the Candrive/Ozcandrive Prospective Older driver Study. The Candrive study involves 928 actively driving older adults (age 70 and above) who were recruited across 7 Canadian sites to participate in a 5 year prospective study of older drivers. The linked Ozcandrive study includes 257 older drivers (age 75 and older) from Australia and New Zealand. All participants had comprehensive annual assessments and driving patterns were monitored using in car recording devices with GPS tracking capabilities. This symposium will confirm that the Canadian population of older drivers recruited is similar to the older Canadian driving population by comparison with the Canadian Community Health Survey. Changes in driving patterns over the course of the study for the Australian Ozcandrive participants will be desribed. Similarly, for Canadian drivers results will be presented in relation to preparation and readiness to transition from active driving to cessation. This cohort provided the unique opportunity to link driver reaction time measured thorugh the Attention Network Test to traffic violations where it was demonstrated that drivers with faster reaction times had higher rates of traffic violation. Finally, the investigators will report on the predictors for at-fault collisions in older drivers that will ultimately contribute to the derivation of an older driver risk stratification tool. |
