Senior drivers can, if they wish, have their abilities evaluated by their doctor or a licensed physician. They can examine eyesight, reflexes, coordination, and even recommend driving only during the day or avoiding certain risky situations.
Another good option: refresher courses. These courses allow seniors to relearn the Highway Code, to better understand updated informations (such as roundabouts or driving assistants), and to benefit from positive feedback on their driving.
Prepare your driving and your vehicle: a winning approach
As we age, switching from a manual to an automatic transmission can make driving remarkably easier. Special workshops are being organized throughout France to boost awareness among older drivers about these practical changes.
Some driving schools also provide courses adapted to seniors, with personalized monitoring and reassuring support.
What if we stopped pointing fingers?
Instead of stigmatizing older drivers, it’s better to encourage them intelligently. After all, they often have decades of incident-free experience. Their experiences are invaluable, but a little help to stay up to date can make all the difference.
