ABSTRACT
This chapter discusses the basic analysis that contains a general mapping of the accident situation of older drivers, and an in-depth analysis of some selected types of accidents. Hence, the in-depth analysis encompasses the following 4 types of accidents: In all cases, it is the older driver who made a left turn. The in-depth analysis of an accident begins with a general description of the circumstances surrounding it, and of the parties involved. Poor adjustment of speed was 50 % higher among older drivers when the accident location was highly complex than when it was assessed as low and nearly twice as common when the accident situation was judged as highly complex. Among the second parties in these accidents, the same tendency was found, i.e. perception problems arose more often when the complexity of the accident situation was judged to be high.
