摘要：	Young drivers continue to represent the biggest road safety challenge in terms of their accident involvement, whilst older drivers are characterised in the literature as being more cautious and able to adapt their driving styles in response to perceived decrements in their driving-related capabilities, a process that is referred to as “self-regulation”. However, whilst collision rates of older drivers may generally be low, the analyses of injury statistics in Great Britain (Lang, 2015) and other countries (OECD, 2001; Hakamies-Blomqvist, 1993; McGwin & Brown, 1999; Clarke et al., 2010) consistently find specific patterns of collisions for older drivers. This reinvestment study aimed to shed light on a process which is often confidently described as being effective in limiting older drivers’ collision involvement, but which we actually only poorly understand. It posed the question how far a lack of calibration is not only a problem for young, but older drivers and can inform the development of interventions that may improve older drivers’ calibration, for example, through training. The inclusion of physiological measures, in terms of their application and the analysis of data they provide, aimed to increase TRL research capacities.
