Retesting Drivers? - Toyota Yaris Forums

I promise I don't start these threads to get people upset, but I think some of them are important things to talk about...however...

My father will be 80 years old in Jan. He's had his driver's license since 16. Although he hasn't had any accidents (yet...knock wood), he scares me to death when I ride with him.

I think drivers should be retested (written AND driving parts) at certain ages. If they don't pass, they stop driving...or at least they lose their license. I think retesting should occur maybe at 50, then every 10 years afterward or something. I see old people who can't even walk getting into vehicles and speeding off. I see little old ladies who couldn't possibly be able to see over the steering wheel!

What do you think about it?
