I agree after a certain age you should be checked for reaction time and vision. I wish they would make the teenager wait until they are 16 to get a drivers permit and 18 for the license. Maybe by then they will be old enough to know what a vehicle is capable of doing while your mine is in play land. A study in the news says the grandchildren are safer riding with there grandparents then there parents.
Poor lady, it’s tough enough to get older & now people will TRY to have her license revoked which almost kills an older person.
I’m glad she didn’t injure herself or anyone else.
I think once people get a certain elderly age they should have to take a driving test. I understand that in some cases that an accident is due to a medical emergency, but most of them are not. I hope the woman is ok….
I’ve never been that eager to go to the dentist !
