[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There have been tremendous recent advances in auto safety with features such as automatic emergency braking, lane departure warning, blind spot monitoring and adaptive cruise control. These features can probably delay by a few years the age at which the elderly should stop driving. Of course, time marches on for all of us, and eventually the elderly should stop driving.[/quote] Yes this stuff is really great. My dad upgraded to one of these cars in his 80s. He also just adjusted to being a more cautious driver — eg instead of pulling out across traffic, he would go to a traffic light to turn. He figured his reaction time was slower so should just be more cautious. I think it’s smart to take these things into consideration as we age. [/quote]
