While many of the 10,000 Americans turning 65 each day can and will continue to drive safely for years to come, some are facing new difficulties on the road. Weakening eyesight and slowing reflexes are just some of the factors that contribute to a higher risk of fatal accidents for older drivers. By 2020, it is estimated that one in six Americans will be over the age of 65, and this means it is more important than ever to find a balance between respect for the older community and keeping roads safe.
