The Road Ahead for Senior Drivers
Safety behind the wheel requires good vision and hearing as well as the ability to react quickly. Many seniors are accomplished drivers with sage driving histories, but find that age-related physical changes and medical conditions can affect their driving. Any restriction on our ability to carry out important driving maneuvers like should checking and emergency braking can lead to safety concerns.
The good news is that DriveWise BC has free seminars for seniors as well as lessons designed to help you maintain your good driving habits to keep you safe behind the wheel for as long as possible. Choose one of our individual driving lessons from a parking refresher to a senior diver evaluation or contact our team to have a customized lesson created specifically for your needs.
