Sixty-three participants who aged from 22 to 65 years old were recruited for this study and divided into three age stratifications. Assessment of participants' abilities and self-rating were conducted by tests of traffic regulations, visual abilities and digital-type speed anticipation reaction. Results of MANOVA showed that self-rating scores, test scores of traffic regulations, visual acuity, depth perception, visual field and reaction time were significant differences among drivers age. The scores of self-rating were higher in younger subjects and denoted that is engaging in too many unsafe driving practices. For visual abilities measurement, younger subjects were better visual acuity and depth perception. In addition, older drivers had more time and errors for reaction test. Female subjects had fewer errors in discriminative reaction than males. Results of this study could be used in applied and renewed for driver's license and improving traffic safety for older drivers.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
