Acceptability of Limited License for Elderly Drivers
In this study, the factors affecting the acceptability of the limited license for elderly drivers are organized from various viewpoints, such as residence and the actual situation of car use. The authors consider three types of limitation conditions: "time limitation," which limits the driving time, "Area limitation," which limits driving area, "vehicle limitation," which limits driving vehicles equipped with advanced safety technology. The survey was conducted on 1240 drivers over 60 years old. As a result, it became clear that "Area-limited license" was relatively challenging to accept, and "vehicle-limited license" tended to be acceptable. It was also found that the place of residence did not affect the acceptability of the limited licenses. Furthermore, it was found that the acceptability of "time-limited license" and "Area-limited license" would be enhanced if alternative means of transportation were available.
