As people grow old, they become more susceptible to memory-related problems such as dementia and Alzheimer’s disease. As memory loss progresses, fine motor skills and familiarity with certain locations also degrade. This can severely affect the driving skills of elderly people and lead to accidents, meaning they become a hazard on the road for other motorists and pedestrians. In 2017, seniors (aged 65 and older) accounted for 13.6% of road fatalities in Australia.

While elderly people are discouraged from driving, some refuse to let go of their driving privileges. For the old folks who won’t stop rolling, it is recommended to monitor their driving and the easiest way to do that is with a GPS tracking device.
