Ms. Carrie Huisingh, doctoral student in the department of epidemiology at the University of Alabama at Birmingham School of Public Health – along with department colleague Dr. Gerald McGwin, professor and vice chair, Ms. Katherine Orman, medical student, and Dr. Cynthia Owsley, professor in the department of ophthalmology – recently examined the relationship between frequent falls in older drivers and motor vehicle collision (MVC) involvement in a cross-sectional study of central Alabama. This study involved a population-based sample of 2,000 licensed drivers aged 70 and older. Self-reported history of falling two or more times in the prior year was the main predictor. Outcomes were any MVC or at-fault MVC in the prior year.
