Abstract

Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) offer many opportunities to enhance the mobility of older drivers and travelers. Safety and distraction issues remain challenges for in-vehicle devices for both older and younger travelers. Previous research has done an excellent job in reviewing critical issues in the safe operation of in-vehicle devices. It is also important that ITS services and systems be encouraged that will assist the nondriving traveler. Preliminary research on these systems shows great promise for the future.
