It feels counterintuitive but older drivers are more dangerous drivers than teenagers, so report various studies. Wear your seat belts and drive defensively!

A few friends of mine have moved from Newport Beach, CA to to Laguna Woods Village, CA (formerly a Leisureworld) where the median age is about 80. Their vehicular insurance went up as much as 20%. Their insurance agent explained it was due to the increase in relative number of accidents in the area due to the prevalence of senior drivers.
