Should elderly drivers be allowed to drive?
After the horrific events in Santa Monica, I wonder if you all feel elderly driver be allowed to drive? I live in South Florida so elderly drivers is a big part of living hear. I feel if you over the age of 16 and don't have any restrictions to your record (DUI's, felonies, etc.) you should be permitted to drive IF you past the neccessary tests. I feel all drivers should be retested in person every 5 years until the age of 45. Then it should be dropped down to 3 years and eyesight, reaction time, and other important abilities need to be tested as well. Thats how I feel. Do you think the current system needs to be changed?
