Japan's over 1/4 accident driver is an elderly person or a road safety hazard

According to data from the Japanese National Police Agency, out of a total of 965 fatal traffic accidents in Japan in 2016, more than a quarter of the drivers were over 65 years old. Experts warned that this road safety hazard will become more and more serious as the Japanese population ages.

According to data from the police department, 28.3% of the fatal traffic accidents in 2016 were elderly, significantly higher than 17.9% before 2007. Japan’s existing 4.8 million-year-old driver is 75 years old. This safety hazard cannot be ignored, because the proportion of the elderly population in Japan is expected to increase to 40% in 2060.

One of the most serious accidents occurred in Yokohama in October 2016, when a 87-year-old man slammed into a group of children walking to school, killing a 6-year-old boy and injuring two. After the incident, the authorities were asked to take action to prevent the elderly drivers from becoming "road killers."

According to reports, Japan has voluntarily waived the driver's license system. Some local governments have urged the elderly not to drive various measures, such as the elderly to hand over the driver's license, take a taxi and bus to enjoy discounts or free of charge; Aichi Prefecture is more ingenious to launch the turnkey The driver’s license has a funeral discount and a discount on ramen noodles.

The police department pointed out that elderly drivers often have frequent accidents because they step on the wrong throttle and brakes or the steering wheel is out of control. The car master Fu Shanyang Temple said that when people reach old age, their judgment will drop. For example, they cannot step on the brakes in time. In addition, as the speed increases, the vision of the elderly will shrink, causing them to miss the road information.

In addition, another reason is that older people actually have decades of driving experience and often are overconfident about their driving ability. A survey by Prof. Fang He, a professor at Riken University in Japan, found that 10% of drivers in their 30s are confident that they can avoid danger, but up to 53% of drivers over the age of 75.

In order to prescribe the right medicine, the Japanese government introduced a new decree in March this year, stipulating that drivers over the age of 75 must first perform cognitive function tests when updating their licenses. Automakers are also gradually installing new devices in new cars to prevent accidental stepping on the accelerator.
