Overall, we argue that, just like smartphones and wearables, driving behavior is a rich form of sensing data that can be harnessed to understand and promote health and well-being!

Including driving variables improved out-of-sample prediction performance above a demographic-only model, most notably for physical health, life satisfaction, and social role constraints

Some driving behaviors are highly specific in their predictions. E.g., longer minutes per trip more strongly predicted physical decline than anything else.

Everyday driving patterns from 2,658 older adults across the US were recorded. They also completed self-reported measures of general well-being and health across cognitive, physical, social, and mental domains. We found widespread associations between driving behaviors and health:
