PURPOSE
The aim of this study was to determine whether visual impairment and age affected driver performance and safety rated during in-traffic driving conditions.
METHODS
Participants included 30 younger, 25 middle-aged, and 35 older subjects with normal vision and 47 older subjects with visual impairment. All subjects were legally eligible to drive. Driving performance was assessed during in-traffic conditions by a professional driving instructor and an occupational therapist using specific scoring criteria.
RESULTS
Group allocation significantly affected driving performance as assessed by the driving instructor and occupational therapist (p < 0.05). The driving instructor and occupational therapist scores were highly correlated (r = 0.76). Of the drivers who were scored as being unsafe, all were older and the majority (75%) had visual impairment.
DISCUSSION
Older drivers with or without visual impairment were rated as being less safe than the younger and middle-aged drivers with normal vision.
目的
本研究的目的是确定视力障碍和年龄是否会影响在实际交通驾驶条件下的驾驶表现和安全评级。
方法
参与者包括30名视力正常的年轻人、25名中年人和35名老年人，以及47名有视力障碍的老年人。所有受试者均具备合法驾驶资格。在实际交通条件下，由专业驾驶教练和职业治疗师使用特定评分标准对驾驶表现进行评估。
结果
如驾驶教练和职业治疗师所评估的，分组对驾驶表现有显著影响（p < 0.05）。驾驶教练和职业治疗师的评分高度相关（r = 0.76）。在被评为不安全的驾驶员中，所有都是老年人，且大多数（75%）有视力障碍。
讨论
有或无视力障碍的老年驾驶员被评为比视力正常的年轻和中年驾驶员安全性更低。
