How safely you drive doesn't depend on how old you are but rather on:

• How well you see.

• Your ability to concentrate.

• How quickly you make decisions under stress to avoid an accident.

The following suggestions are intended to help you cope with the ever changing traffic environment.

• Never drink and drive.

• If you are taking any medication, consult your physician about its potential effects on your driving abilities.

• Take a driver-retraining course.

• Have your eyes checked regularly.

• Keep your windshield and headlights clean.

• Replace wiper blades when they start to leave streaks.

• Take into account the traffic, road, and weather conditions, particularly with regard to stopping distance.

• Never send text messages while driving.

• Refrain from using or minimize the use of a cell phone while driving.
