ELDERLY DRIVERS ABILITIES USING COMPLEX GUIDANCE DISPLAYS

This paper looks at the ability of elderly drivers to accept and use navigation and guidance device. The ultimate goal is to define future ergonomic recommendations, including these population requirements. The analysis presented in this paper suggests the various presentation types of guidance displays, i.e. static, mixed and dynamic, are closely connected to the type of layout and the route followed in an intersection. The paper concludes that a system must offer the opportunity to the driver to be prepared for their maneuver before entering an intersection, by displaying the overall design of the intersection ahead of time.
