Samenvatting
This article reviews and documents past and current practices in the U.S. with respect to addressing problems of older drivers within the ITS framework. It shows that even though a significant research effort is focused towards the development of human factors design guidelines, very little is focused primarily on the older driver. A large number of issues dealing with ITS components still needs to be addressed and several researchers identify the need for additional work in determining the impact of age on the various ITS components. Areas where additional research regarding the needs of the older driver and ITS are needed are also presented. (A)
