As we get older we experience physical, cognitive and mental changes that can impact on our ability to drive. Ageing does not automatically mean you stop being an experienced or safe driver. Many people aged 80 and over continue to enjoy the independence that driving offers. For some however, driving becomes a safety risk, or even an unwanted responsibility. In this webinar we discussed the importance of good nutrition, adequate rest and exercise to stay strong and sharp and keep driving.
We also discussed how to transition from being a driver to being a passenger with minimal impact to your own health and wellbeing.
