Annotation	Affordable, easy to use and flexible transport options are vital to older people's quality of life. This monograph has been published simultaneously as Physical & Occupational Therapy in Geriatrics, vol 23, nos 2/3. It provides physical and occupational therapists with recent research findings on older driver assessment, remediation or rehabilitation, and the use of alternatives to the care in the event that older adults need to give up driving. It addresses changes in driving patterns over time, the impact of climate conditions on driving, mental and physical health issues, self-regulation by drivers, and driver safety. (KJ/RH).
