How old is too old to be driving on our highways??

I'll quit when some twinkie with a cell phone glued to her (his) ear takes me out while she's running a redlight.

When the Palsy causes unexpected lane changes.

There is no age limit because people can be competent up to the very moment they expire. The problem is that licenses are given to incompetents of ALL ages.

Before any of you young wreckless punks answer...

Consider that the insurance statistics reveal that the safest group is 55 to 69, and the most dangerous group is 16-19.

I think that testing for problems, however, could possibly begin at 70.

not necessarily an age limit, but a health limit, such as after your eyesight is a certain prescription, or if you've had multiple heart attacks and/or strokes


TheShankmaster
It depends on the individual. If an old person has good vision, is alert, and has a fast reaction time, he or she should still be allowed to drive.

When they are no longer able to drive safely due to their physical and/or mental faculties.

When you can no longer pass the driving test, or when your health conditions prohibit driving safely.

when you cant react usually if you have a walker or need really thick glasses or a cane or a motorized cart then you should get off the road. no age just conditions


hotrod
when you can no longer safely operate a car, and put other lives at stake.

I say you must be at least 18 and not older than 65.


oklatom
Age has very little to do with it, it's ability. Anyone over the age of 70 with an at fault accident, serious traffic violation, or over 3 minor tickets should be tested. Otherwise, leave them alone.
