The Minnesota Gerontological Society (MGS) and Twin Cities Public Television (tpt) have co-produced a one-hour documentary that can be viewed streaming online. It will also periodically air on Minnesota tpt channels between November 2009 and November of 2010.
The focus of the documentary is on the following four issues:
* How to determine if you're a safe driver
* Personal strategies to increase your safe driving years
* Ways to adapt vehicles to allow safe driving longer
* Who should be involved in deciding when a person should stop driving
* How to locate and promote alternate transportation options

It weaves those stories with interviews of experts and demonstrations of solutions.
