在社区老年人群中评估了与停止驾驶、驾驶里程数和里程变化相关的因素。1989年，对纽黑文EPESE队列的幸存成员进行了一项驾驶调查。在1,331名受访者中，456人在1983年至1989年期间开车，139人停止开车。从多元逻辑回归模型的独立预测因素包括较高的年龄，较低的收入，不工作，神经系统疾病，白内障，较低的体力活动水平和功能障碍。这些风险因素被结合起来，以评估其预测停止驾驶的能力。如果不存在任何因素，没有受试者停止驾驶;如果存在一个或两个因素，17%停止驾驶，如果存在三个或更多因素，49%停止驾驶。长期与预期的医疗因素、体力活动水平和社会经济因素有关。高里程司机往往是年轻，活跃的男性谁仍然工作。与五年前相比，年龄和残疾的增加与里程减少有关。
The factors associated with driving cessation, number of miles driven, and changes in mileage were assessed in a community-living elderly population. A driving survey was administered in 1989 to surviving members of the New Haven EPESE cohort. Of 1,331 respondents, 456 had driven and 139 had stopped driving between 1983 and 1989. Independent predictors of driving cessation from a multiple logistic regression model included higher age, lower income, not working, neurologic disease, cataracts, lower physical activity level, and functional disability. These risk factors were combined to assess their ability to predict driving cessation. If no factors were present, no subjects stopped driving; if one or two factors were present, 17 percent stopped, if three or more factors were present, 49 percent stopped. A long with the expected medical factors, physical activity level and social and economic factors contributed to driving cessation. High mileage drivers tended to be younger, active males who still worked. Increasing age and disability were associated with mileage reduction compared to five years earlier.
