Driving is a highly valued instrumental activity of daily living, especially for the older adults who consider it part of their definition of independence and mobility. This paper discusses the issues associated with driving and older adults, including the difficulty of identifying when it is time to give up the keys. With a review of the latest research and need for specialized services for those with diminished capacity, the paper highlights how general practice occupational therapists must work in conjunction with driver rehabilitations specialists to meet the need of this growing population. A framework for referral and judgment is described and resources offered to practitioners to use.
