AUTOMOTIVE ADAPTIVE EQUIPMENT AND VEHICLE MODIFICATIONS

Age is not intrinsically a disability, yet there are conditions correlated with or exacerbated by aging that can be addressed using appropriate assistive technology. This paper addresses disabilities associated with aging and the automotive adaptive equipment and vehicle modifications developed to compensate for these disabilities. Such equipment and modifications are always customized to an individual's disability.
