AAA is coming out with a test to help senior citizens determine if they should be still driving. They can take it in the privacy of their own home. Well at least it's a start as old people driving poorly on the roads is a growing problem for all of us. I don't know what's worse, sharing the road with old people or SUV's.... lol.

AAA worked with scientists from TransAnalytics for over a year and a half to develop “AAA Roadwise Review: A Tool to Help Seniors Drive Safely Longer.” The CD-ROM test measures eight skills proven to be among the leading predictors of crash risk among older drivers: leg strength and mobility, head/neck flexibility, high- and low-contrast visual acuity, working memory, visualization of missing information, visual search and useful field of view.
