Many have either voluntarily given up <br />their driving privileges or been forced to stop driving because of their diminished driving <br />skills. Regardless of the reasons, there are many senior citizens whose primary method <br />of transportation is walking. <br />Collision patterns of senior citizens pedestrians are different than those of the rest of the <br />population. Most senior citizen pedestrian collisions occur at intersections while a car is <br />making a turn. <br />Safe Moves proposed to conduct twenty (20) senior citizen traffic safety education <br />programs at senior citizen centers and other community sites including housing facilities. <br />Presentations will address all issues of traffic safety in an appropriate manner so as to <br />accommodate the diverse cultural backgrounds of the senior citizens. <br />The workshops for seniors will address the issues of pedestrian and vehicle safety in an <br />appropriate manner so as to accommodate the diverse physical limitations and needs of <br />the participants. Workshops will include explanations of hazards, traffic laws, operation <br />of signals and preventive techniques to be taken to make motorists more aware of senior <br />citizens. <br />The lesson plans for the senior citizen program were as follows: <br />SAFE MOVES CSA Page 9 of 21 <br />Project No. 120-38-176 <br />
