Zusammenfassung:Age related changes in the sensory modalities of hearing and vision, along with changes in the information processing abilities of selective attention, perceptual style, and perceptual-motor reaction time, were reviewed in the context of driving behavior. Literature re-poried, indicated age related changes in these abilities have relevance for the understanding of the driving behaviour of the older adult.
