Florida Atlantic University researchers tracked vehicle sensors and telematics data from nearly 4,800 trips over three years to identify early cognitive decline markers. By comparing driving behaviors between cognitively unimpaired individuals and those with pre-mild or mild cognitive impairment, the study found that inconsistent gas pedal control, fragmented trips, and inefficient speed regulation serve as reliable indicators of early decline. This passive monitoring method offers a practical tool for detecting cognitive changes before clinical symptoms emerge.

Conversely, first-year employees account for over one-third of all injuries across various sectors. The study highlights specific industry risks and recommends targeted safety measures to address these evolving challenges.
