The purpose of this study is to develop a data-driven decision-making framework to ensure the safety of older adults with mild cognitive impairment or early dementia who continue to drive. The study aims to test the ability of a new Driving Monitoring System to collect naturalistic driving outcomes and distinguish between cognitively intact older drivers, older drivers with mild cognitive impairment, and older drivers with mild dementia. The study also aims to assess the acceptability and usability of the Driving Monitoring System for monitoring driving behavior among people with dementia.
