  • Frailty and poor physical functioning as risk factors for driving cessation

    Open Access•Thelma J Mielenz, Haomiao Jia et al.•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Public Health•2024

    Introduction: Frailty and low physical performance are modifiable factors and, therefore, targets for interventions aimed at delaying driving cessation (DC). The objective was to determine the impact of frailty and physical performance on DC. Methods: Multisite prospective cohort of older drivers. The key inclusion criteria are as follows: active driver age 65-79 years, possessing a valid driver's license, without significant cognitive impairment…

  • Associations of Self-Care Health Behaviors With Driving Cessation Among Older Drivers

    Open Access•Thelma J Mielenz, Adam Whalen et al.•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Public Health•2022

    Older adults are at risk of driving cessation as they age, which can result in negative health outcomes including loss of independence. This study aimed to investigate the associations of self-care health behaviors with the risk of driving cessation. Demographics, health and driving characteristics were captured from healthcare systems in Denver, CO, San Diego, CA, Ann Arbor, MI, Baltimore, MD and Cooperstown, NY for 2,990 adults at baseline then…

  • Rate of Social Isolation by Geographic Location Among Older Adults

    Open Access•Laura Lynch, Thelma J Mielenz et al.•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Public Health•2021

    Introduction: Social isolation is a modifiable risk factor for negative health outcomes among older adults. This work assessed the relationship between geography (i.e., urban vs. non-urban residence) and social isolation in a cohort of older drivers. Methods: The AAA LongROAD cohort with 2,989 older adult drivers from across the country were included. Social isolation was measured at baseline and at two subsequent annual follow-ups using PROMIS v…

  • Importance of Driving and Potential Impact of Driving Cessation for Rural and Urban Older Adults

    Open Access•David Strogatz, Thelma J Mielenz et al.•ARTICLE•The Journal of Rural Health•2020

    PURPOSE: Analyses compared older drivers from urban, suburban, and rural areas on perceived importance of continuing to drive and potential impact that driving cessation would have on what they want and need to do. METHODS: The AAA LongROAD Study is a prospective study of driving behaviors, patterns, and outcomes of older adults. A cohort of 2,990 women and men 65-79 years of age was recruited during 2015-2017 from health systems or primary care …

  • Older Adult Safety and Mobility

    Open Access•David W Eby, Lisa J Molnar•ARTICLE•Public Works Management & Policy•2009•References: 3

    In the coming decades, about one in five drivers will be aged 65 or more years in many Western nations. Given the increased fatal crash risk of older adults coupled with the continuing need for effective mobility, the issue of older adult safety and mobility is complex. Indeed, researchers have suggested that this issue has two interdependent, underlying goals for research and programs: to help those who are able to drive safely continue to do so…
