Maintaining Safe Driving: Relating Declines In Critical Driving Skills to Advanced Driver Assistance (ADAS) System Technologies

Technical ReportAs people age, they are more likely to experience declines in vision, movement, and thinking abilities (known as functional abilities) that are needed for safe driving. Advanced Drive Assistance System (ADAS) technologies may help people maintain safe driving for longer even when faced with declining functional abilities. There is little information, however, about which ADAS can be most useful for specific functional ability declines. Based on research conducted by the University of Michigan Transportation Research Institute (UMTRI), we have developed a table that provides recommended ADAS technologies for those who are starting to experience declines in 28 functional abilities.Michigan Office of Highway Safety Planninghttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/177531/1/UMTRI-2023-14.pdfhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/177531/4/UMTRI-2023-14.pdfDescription of UMTRI-2023-14.pdf : Technical Repor
