Regular exercise, such as walking, strength training, and flexibility exercises, can improve reaction time, coordination, and endurance. It’s also important to keep your vision and hearing checked regularly, as these senses play a key role in driving. Cognitive health can be maintained through activities that challenge memory and concentration, such as puzzles or reading. Lastly, staying aware of any medical conditions that may affect your ability to drive—like arthritis, diabetes, or medications—helps you make necessary adjustments or seek professional advice when needed.
