Older drivers are more likely to be distracted by tech while driving, AAA report says
When Carol Baker, a 76-year-old driver from Annapolis, Maryland, gets behind the wheel of her 2016 Buick Enclave, her phone automatically connects to the car. She uses the Bluetooth technology to call friends and change the radio station without taking her eyes off the road. "It doesn't always understand what I'm saying," she says. "That can be a little frustrating." But audio commands and touchscreens in cars are more than frustrating for older drivers -- they can be downright dangerous.
