[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This recently happened in Florida. Elderly woman, man killed dining outside at restaurant. Woman not charged, because it was an "accident."

Honestly I think after 65, everyone needs to be retested every 5 years.

Hell, I wouldn't mind everyone being tested every 5 years, because lord knows there are so many people who  never should have received licenses in the first place[/quote]

Testing every year over age 75. No excuse. [/quote]

Well, make it a real test too -- my teen just got a license after the most lame road test ever. My 82 year old relative just passed an elder driving test in another state, and I swear this person can't see or hear and has numerous troubling health conditions. Now we're in a real pickle because now do you take a car away from someone who just allegedly proved they are safe to drive?

I know public transportation is a poor substitute -- you can walk 10 feet to your car, but the bus stop is too far away. This is why elder living communities are so great -- they have built in transportation options. But getting people to move out of their suburban homes is so, so hard.[/quote]
