Preparation

Our S.A.V.E.S Project logo allows for law enforcement to identify a vulnerable person is potentially inside the vehicle before approaching. Our S.A.V.E.S Project ID provides QR code technology in case of an emergency where a family member or guardian may be disabled during a traffic crash or other emergency. A QR code can be placed on the seat in front of or on the dash of where the vulnerable person typically sits. This allows first responders to have access to critical information.

Be an Advocate

Clear communication with officers is essential. Letting them know a passenger may be a vulnerable individual can be critical in many situations. Advocating for the passenger’s needs can also help create a safer, more positive interaction.

Elderly

Arriving Late to Destination

Take Action

Having the Conversation

Driving requires the ability to react quickly to many circumstances. Due to this, a person living with Alzheimer's may eventually be unable to drive. Take action and help with the transition process for your loved one to ensure understanding and dignity.

Express your concerns while showing support.

  • Appeal to your loved one's sense of responsibility

  • Inquire with their physician on how they may assist

Acknowledge change is difficult.

  • Be patient but also firm with your loved one

  • Certain diseases can make it more difficult to comprehend the dangers of poor driving habits

Transition driving responsibilities.

  • Reach out to friends and family members to provide transportation

  • Research transportation services for older adults
