chosen.content: Studies have found that elderly drivers are involved in fewer fatal crashes on a per-mile driven basis than younger drivers, but their involvement in crashes increases as a percentage of total registered drivers. Data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration shows that older drivers are involved in approximately 5.6% of all fatal crashes while they comprise just 8.5% of total drivers. In contrast, teen drivers are involved in 14.4% of fatal crashes while they represent 14.3% of total drivers. Additionally, among drivers ages 70 and older, the fatal crash involvement rate was lower than younger drivers in every size group except for the 66 to 70 age group, where it was higher.

rejected.content: According to data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, elderly drivers (those aged 65 and older) are less likely to be involved in a fatal crash per miles driven than any other age group. However, the rate of accidents caused by elderly drivers is still significantly higher than the rate for youthful drivers (15-19 years). Elderly drivers are involved in about 3.2 million of the total 6.1 million accidents and approximately 2.9 percent of total accidents are caused by elderly drivers, despite the fact that elderly drivers represent only about 8 percent of the licensed drivers in the United States.
