    As advanced technology becomes increasingly integrated into modern automobiles, concerns are growing about its impact on driver safety—especially among older adults.


    While features like adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assistance, and infotainment systems are designed to enhance safety and convenience, they can also introduce complexity and distraction. This presentation will look at the importance of understanding automate systems' limitations, and will provide an update on ways to address unsafe driving practices in friends and relatives.
