Document Summary
Efect of age and auditory and visual dual task on closed road driving performance. High fatal crash rate per mile, social and economic costs. Older drivers involved in disproporionate number of crashes associated with intersecions and traic situaions. Atenional burden of new devices increases accident risk by 4x. Secondary task is less likely to see hazards and response imes are slower including auditory and visual tasks. The more complex secondary task leads to more interference, afects detecions of hazards. Older paricipants more afected than by younger ones, reducion in divided and selecive visual atenion have an increased crash risk. Older drivers have 40% reducion in useful ield of view, 6x increase in crash risk. Reducion in ufov more likely to predict injurious crash, more than 40% reducion leads to. 16. 3x increase to be involved in a crash. Older adults are slower to iniiate braking in response, greater variability in lane posiion.
