Elderly Drivers Under Scrutiny!

UK experts propose stricter checks for elderly drivers' licenses, citing safety concerns. An increasing number of older drivers is sparking debate on road safety in the UK. Experts suggest regular "driver MOTs" rather than forcing them off-road, focusing on reaction speed and eyesight. Currently, drivers over 70 self-certify their fitness every three years without medical approval, a process now under scrutiny. A recent survey shows significant public support for retesting senior drivers, especially from younger generations. This change aims to balance safety and elderly independence.
