“Driving this car is comfortable and safe.”

Our department’s special interest is injury prevention, especially in vulnerable groups like the elderly. Our society is ageing and remains active until a high age. Safe driving (active and passive) and motorised mobility in general a substantial part of quality of live for many well aged drivers. Many of them would like to buy a new and safer car, but are sometimes afraid of the modern technology. Modern touch pads and multi information panels may be the right thing for younger drivers, but can cause stressful reactions in drivers of higher age.

Shiny dashboards and irritating colours can distract and call concentration while driving. Although with the existing packages and technical solutions ready from the manufacturers tick box available, salesperson could be able to advise senior drivers and to improve their safety, the safety of the fellow passengers as well as the safety of pedestrians and others. Anyhow most of the car companies have not acknowledged yet, how easy it would be to use technology like rear cameras to improve safety in senior drivers significantly.
