3 Evolution of the Senior Driver Renewal Program Program Introduction Vision, knowledge and road test required annually Program Changes Group Education Session (GES) Vision and knowledge test Road test referral at the discretion of Driver Improvement counsellor (DIC) Program Changes Knowledge test replaced with cognitive screens Road test referral based on objective criteria 1936 October 1996 April 21,

4 4 Evaluation of Ontario s 80 and Over Senior Driver Renewal Program Knowledge test performance is not a strong predictor of road safety outcomes Good indicators of road safety outcomes: Demerit points Failing first road test attempt

5 5 A Meta-Analysis of Cognitive Screening Tools of Drivers Aged 80 and Over 2 tools prioritized 6 tools piloted 42 tools selected 446 peer reviewed articles

21 Conclusions and Next Steps Monitor & Evaluate Research & Develop Ontario s unique, multi-faceted approach to senior driver licence renewal is unlike any other licensing renewal program internationally. Preliminary results demonstrate that the new program is 2.3 times more effective in identifying drivers who may be unfit to drive. Results of the complete evaluation will inform future program and policy changes. 21

25 Test Scoring & Thresholds Clock Drawing Test Instructions: Draw a large circle, put all the numbers in to make it look like the face of a clock, and then draw the hands of the clock to show ten minutes after eleven. Stop when completed. Scoring: For a total of 7 points, award 3 points for time, 2 points for numbers, 2 points for spacing. Thresholds: 3-7 points = pass 1-2 points = moderate fail 0 points = extreme fail Letter Cancellation Test Instructions: Look at the letters below. Whenever you see an H, place a mark with a pencil through it. Stop when completed. Scoring: Calculating the number of omissions (i.e., H s that were not crossed out). Thresholds: 0-5 omissions = pass 6-10 omissions = moderate fail 11+ omissions = extreme fail 25
