A Multidomain Approach for Predicting Older Driver Safety Under In-Traffic Road Conditions
From Journal of the American Geriatrics Society
A combination of three tests from the vision, cognitive, and motor domains, including motion sensitivity, color choice reaction time, postural sway on a compliant foam rubber surface, and a self-reported measure of driving exposure, was able to classify participants into safe and unsafe driver groups with sensitivity of 91% and specificity of 70%.
