Title:What Can Crash Data Tell Us About Older Drivers in North Dakota?
Publication Date:Jul 2010
Type:Issue Brief

Abstract

Older drivers represent a growing segment of North Dakota's driver population. North Dakota currently has the highest proportion of 85-years-and-older residents, and by 2030, one in five residents will be 70 years or older. Older adults have received local and national attention as a high risk group based on elevated injury rates. In 2007, The North Dakota Department of Transportation (NDDOT) focused on the issue of older drivers locally as an area of emphasis in its Strategic Highway Safety Plan.
