Even though they�re more likely to wear their seat belts, less likely to drink and drive, and less likely to speed - because of their fragility senior drivers are actually more likely to be hurt in a car crash than any other driver.  That�s why Triple A, the nation�s largest motor club, has created an at home test to help seniors gauge their driving abilities.  Bob Darbelnet is president of Triple A:

 

�Even though this tool will not solve every problem associated with senior driving safety, we�re confident that Road Wise Review has the potential to both help families with a truly tough issue and at the same time have a major impact on traffic safety.�

  

Darbelnet says the C-D rom is intended to help keep seniors driving safely for as long as possible.  Road Wise Review is available at local Triple A offices and at a-a-a-dot-com.
