I'm thinking past the age of 65ish they should have to take road tests every other year in order to have their license renewed. About a month ago I was hit by an elderly man who admitted never even looking before he pulled out. The guy was at least 85 and clearly shouldn't have been driving. I just got my car out of the shop Thursday & came within inches of getting hit by another elderly driver only 5 minutes ago on my way back from lunch. I have a set of grandparents who I refuse to ride with because its life-endangering! An elderly couple from my church has been in the hospital for 2 months now because the man pulled out into traffic and nearly killed them. I really think its time for our government to step in and take measures to prevent these kinds of things! My feelings are if a person is capable of driving, they can pass the test and move on, but at some point I do think the license should be yanked for the protection of that person & the drivers around them. Your thoughts?
