"This is pure age discrimination. They cannot provide any evidence or figures to show that drivers aged 70 and over would be more often involved in accidents."

Interessant, dass sich Lemmy einen Absatz aus der Mitte gegriffen hat. Der Anriss ist der hier:

The European Union wants elderly people (70+) to undergo medical tests from now on to prove that they are still capable of driving a car every five years. However, the proposal has been met with a lot of criticism.

    Very anecdotal but in Ontario they have to retake a written test at 80 I think. My grandfather passed and got his license reinstated and two months later he was hospitalized for dementia.

    I think a practical test is required tbh.
