Imagine a world where people can safely and fully navigate their communities. Where driving and community mobility enable life, not stop it.

Activities like driving a car, taking the bus, or forms of active transportation such as biking, walking, or using a wheelchair enable us to participate in our communities. However, an overwhelming number of motor vehicle collisions, inadequate public transportation options and infrastructure, as well as other personal, social and environmental conditions compromise the health and well-being of individuals and communities across the world. 

The i-Mobile Driving Research Lab exists to uncover the fitness to drive, driving performance, active transportation, and community mobility challenges experienced by at-risk populations across the life span; and develop collaborative and innovative solutions to overcome them. By integrating multiple methods of inquiry and through an occupational lens, the i-Mobile Driving Research Lab dares to imagine a world where driving and community mobility enable life, not restrict it.
