摘要

在美国 30 个州，驾照颁发机构可以限制 "有医疗风险 "的驾驶员驾车离家的距离。然而，老年驾驶员在离家多远的地方发生车祸，或者车祸发生的距离如何因身体状况而异，这些都是未知数。我们利用地理编码的撞车地点和与医疗保险理赔相关联的住址，描述了不同驾驶员特征下离家距离与撞车之间的关系。我们发现，大多数撞车事故都发生在离家几英里的范围内，而不同驾驶员的人口统计学特征或医疗条件几乎没有变化。因此，距离限制可能不会降低老年人的车祸率，安全与机动性之间的权衡值得考虑。

Distance From Home to Motor Vehicle Crash Location: Implications for License Restrictions Among Medically-At-Risk Older Drivers.

In 30 states, licensing agencies can restrict the distance from home that "medically-at-risk" drivers are permitted to drive. However, where older drivers crash relative to their home or how distance to crash varies by medical condition is unknown. Using geocoded crash locations and residential addresses linked to Medicare claims, we describe how the relationship between distance from home to crash varies by driver characteristics. We find that a majority of crashes occur within a few miles from home with little variation across driver demographics or medical conditions. Thus, distance restrictions may not reduce crash rates among older adults, and the tradeoff between safety and mobility warrants consideration.

期刊介绍： The Journal of Aging & Social Policy offers a platform for insightful contributions from an international and interdisciplinary group of policy analysts and scholars. It provides an in-depth examination and analysis of critical phenomena that impact aging and the development and implementation of programs for the elderly from a global perspective, with a broad scope that encompasses not only the United States but also regions including Europe, the Middle East, Australia, Latin America, Asia, and the Asia-Pacific rim. The journal regularly addresses a wide array of issues such as long-term services and supports, home- and community-based care, nursing-home care, assisted living, long-term care financing, financial security, employment and training, public and private pension coverage, housing, transportation, health care access, financing, and quality, family dynamics, and retirement. These topics are of significant importance to the field of aging and social policy, reflecting the journal's commitment to presenting a comprehensive view of the challenges and solutions related to aging populations around the world.
