Driving is a complex activity, requiring skills that may be impacted by Turner syndrome (e.g., depth perception). There are resources available that may assist women with TS across the lifespan, from new drivers to older drivers, to assist with driving safety. This can include adaptive equipment in the vehicle as well as driving evaluations. This webinar outlines the significance of driving, skills required for safe driving, and available resources related to driving.
