Perceived Driving Skill and Driving Behaviors | ||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Always wears seatbelt | Made past-year driving changes | Feels that they should limit/give up driving | High perceived driving skills in normal situations | High perceived driving skills in emergency situations | High perceived driving skill in reacting safely to risks on highway | |

Note. All available data were included in analyses.
AOR= Adjusted Odds Ratio. Adjusted estimates control for demographic characteristics and driving frequency.
Participants were considered to have high perceived driving skill if they rated themselves as a 9 or a 10 on a 0–10 scale.
All n = 39 participants who felt they should limit or give up their driving had at least one concern about driving, and a logistic regression model for this relationship could not be completed.
