[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a friend who is 90 and drives just fine, no problems, lucky for her her three adult kids aren't trying to run her life for her yet. I have another friend who is 83, she had a minor accident at the Trader Joe's that was her fault, the state was having her retest to see if she should be driving, she thought the tests were too hard and gave up her license voluntarily. It is a very individual thing despite age. I'm with you, it is not appropriate to infantalize an adult because of your opinion rather than based on facts.[/quote] IMO, once you hit 65+, you should have to have an IN person vision test (or from licensed Doctor) every 5 years AND an in person driving test every 5 years. Once you hit 80, I think that test should be every 2 years. Driving is a privilege, not a right. Fact is many 85+ should not be driving and most kids have trouble taking away the keys. [/quote]
