Abstract
The baby boomers are aging. To ensure their safety and everyone else's, cars, highways, and public transportation need to adapt fast. The oldest baby boomers start turning 65 in less than three years, but car-crazed American society isn't ready, and neither are the boomers themselves. Cars, highways, street signs, public transportation, and politics are all changing to accommodate an increase of roughly 20 million Americans over age 65, from 2004 to 2020. Automakers are working to get ready. (Author/publisher)
