[quote=Anonymous]I've been driving for 40 years and am a better driver than I was at the beginning. Over time, my big improvements were more patience, less ego and better awareness of the cars around me and anticipating what they are going to do. I'm guessing that is pretty typical - new drivers get into a lot of accidents. Older drivers don't log nearly as many miles as middle age adults and I'd guess the accident rate (per miles driven) for drivers over 70 goes up. I probably peaked as a driver around age 40. While some aspects of my driving have improved since then, my reaction time and visual acuity have declined to some extent. I told my kid that I probably haven't driven 90 mph in at least a decade and probably never will again. I'm still a safe driver at age 60 but was kind of hoping that the self-driving technology would be ready for me soon! Maybe I should start looking at a golf cart retirement community.[/quote]
