Senior Drivers Yearly Test 75+

Created by L.S. on April 07, 2014

I believe the elderly over the age of 75 should have to take a yearly test to renew their licenses. Every year they kill more than teenage drivers. An average of 500 elderly drivers are injured daily. Senior drivers account for 14% of all traffic fatalities and 17% of all pedestrian fatalities. They suffer from loss of vision, loss of eyes sight, loss of muscle strength and reaction time. They get drowsy because of medications, and have a reduction in the ability to focus or concentrate. They are a danger to other drivers, and to themselves. We should help not just save others, but them too.
