Did you know, according to a survey by AAA, that 83% of older drivers have NOT had a conversation about driving concerns with their family or healthcare provider?
Talking openly about transportation challenges can help you stay safe, independent, and confident. Whether you are noticing changes in driving abilities or planning ahead, communication is key.
If you need help starting the conversation about your driving habits, take the American Geriatrics Society (AGS) Older Driver Safety interactive questionnaire today! Members of our Safe Mobility for Life team worked with AGS on this survey that you can answer either for yourself or for someone else.
▶ Answer simple questions about your driving habits
▶ Get personalized suggestions based on your answers
▶ Share your results with a healthcare provider to talk through any concerns you might have.
You can take the questionnaire here: fdot.info/driver-safety-questionnaire
