O m G

When does it become to dangerous for an older person to drive? Senior citizens on the road have become sort of a joke in our culture, but i don't think it's a laughing matter. There's no doubt in my mind that it's dangerous to let old folks drive.

How to we fix this issue? You could just make all people over a set age turn in their liscenses, but that seems a bit unfair. It's possible to screen all older people to see if they still have good sight, hearing, etc. but it's possible that they could still be unfit to drive. You could have each senior citizen take a driving test, which seems impractical but still a good solution.

I say let's leave it up to the suits and politicians to decide.
