What ADAS are the most promising for our future older drivers?: evidences reported from France and Sweden

Focus groups were conducted in both France and Sweden as part of the SAFEMOVE project. The aim of the study was to identify and asses difficulties experienced by older drivers (+70) due to age-related declines in sensory, physical and cognitive abilities and potential consequences in terms of both traffic safety and mobility. Furthermore, the aim was to identify Advanced Driving Assistance Systems (ADAS) liable to improve safe mobility for the target group and to compare the situation between France and Sweden. Three main topics investigated were trip planning and navigation task, speed control and regulation, and intersection crossing (more particularly when turning on the left). For each one, data collected focused on both older drivers' experienced difficulties and their interests or expectations towards driver support like ADAS. There was in general a positive attitude to driver support systems but participants were also concerned about costs. Furthermore, several differences between French and Swedish older drivers were found.
