The increase in the number of older drivers has resulted, in the last two decades, in a series of conferences and workshops that have outlined the magnitude of the "older driver problem." More than 150 research and development recommendations generated by these conferences were rated by a task force of the Transportation Research Board in terms of their relative importance. On the basis of this rating, six major categories of high-priority research and development needs were identified: highway design, vehicle design, licensing and rehabilitation, vision and visual assessment, biomedical issues, and general issues. The current status of research in each of the categories is reviewed, and the most important avenues for future inquiry are outlined.
在过去二十年里,老年驾驶员数量的增加引发了一系列会议和研讨会,这些会议和研讨会概述了“老年驾驶员问题”的严重程度。由这些会议提出的150多项研发建议由交通研究委员会的一个特别工作组根据其相对重要性进行了评级。基于这一评级,确定了六大类高优先级的研发需求:公路设计、车辆设计、执照发放与康复、视力与视觉评估、生物医学问题以及一般问题。本文对每个类别中的研究现状进行了综述,并概述了未来研究的最重要方向。
