How can CarFit help older drivers achieve the perfect “fit”?

CarFit is an educational safety program developed by AAA, AARP, and the American Occupational Therapy Association designed to help older adults stay safe while driving by providing information and tools on how to optimize their vehicle’s safety features.

The goals of the community-based program are to:

  • Help aging drivers improve the “fit” of their vehicles for safety and comfort,
  • Promote conversations among older adults and their families about safe driving,
  • Provide community transportation resources and information on how to use new vehicle technologies and warning devices.

By attending a CarFit event, older adults can be proactive about staying safe on the road.

This FREE, 20-minute check-up not only provides an opportunity to open a positive, non-threatening conversation about driver safety but also provides information on community-specific resources to help enhance the safety of older drivers and increase their mobility in the community.

To find an event near you, please visit Car-Fit.org
