This article talks about the best cars for teen drivers but I'd like to add these might also be good cars for elderly drivers who have less limb strength, slower reaction times, and are more frail in the event of a crash. Make sure your elderly relatives have cars with power steering and power brakes, preferably with an automatic transmission. Check to see they can step in and out of the seats without difficulty. Also check that the blind spots are not too large. Car dealers can turn of air bags if a driver (or regular passenger) is too lightweight to take the hit.
