The Dartmouth Police Department and AAA Northeast will host an "Older, Wiser, Driver" program on February 2, 12:30 - 1:30 p.m.

During the program, officers will discuss changes seniors need to consider in maintaining safe driving skills.

Topics will include reason driving skills deteriorate with age, and strategies for accommodating or overcoming those changes and challenges with an emphasis on keeping seniors behind the wheel for as long as possible as safely as possible.

The program will be presented by John Paul, Senior Manager of Traffic Safety for AAA Northeast.

He will also discuss some of the latest automotive technology that can help keep drivers safe behind the wheel.
