Proposal for over 65's to retake driving tests

[wilkos_perm]

If you look at accident statistics, then the logic is that the under 25's should be taking their driving test regularly. They are 4 times more likely to be involved in a fatal accident than any other age group.

Its a totally different reason though isn't it? They're theoretically competent and would no doubt easily pass a test. Its more about risk taking. Harsher prosecution would potentially help with that

I've just driven from Normanby to Stewart Park. At the roundabout near the Fountain there is a compulsory right hand turn, but not for this young girl. Right hand lane and straight on cutting up the driver in front of me. What did she gain, 2 car lengths and stuck at the lights. Not helped with 2 of her 3 brake lights out, just shook my head at her while she waited to turn down Marton Road.
