Reduction in attention resources, cognition, and perception makes navigating an automobile more difficult as people age. Since mobility is important to maintain quality of life, older drivers compensate for effects of aging by avoiding difficult, dangerous, and stressful situations and possibly by copiloting, that is, sharing piloting and navigation tasks with a passenger. This study examined navigation and copiloting of older people, with and without ITS in-vehicle navigation systems, and explored their need for special training for the navigation units. Group interviews of 18 drivers over age 64, who had substantial experience with two ITS in-vehicle navigation systems tested in the FAST-TRAC ITS deployment project were conducted.
