About The Study: In this longitudinal cohort study of older drivers, adults with major depressive disorder demonstrated distinct and riskier driving behaviors than those in the control group without depression, with higher rates of hard braking, cornering, and unpredictability in driving patterns over time. Routine depression screening and tailored interventions are essential for enhancing driving safety and maintaining independence among older adults with major depressive disorder.
