If so what age? What criteria? Tired of old people swappin lanes without looking over once, falling asleep at green lights, not knowing right on red is even an option, goin 30 in a 55.

I think 65 is a good age for it. Always makes me nervous when I see that ole pink haired lady that can barely see over the steering wheel barreling down the road in an old buick

Also, have you seen how long it takes one to exit that thing? I've went inside, bought something and came back just as she finally gets upright and ready to close the door.

After your thread yesterday I'm surprised you didn't go over there and try to hit her up for her phone number.

65 sounds reasonable. Has this idea ever been discussed where it counts though?

i think that once you are 65 (retirement age) it should be required every 5 years
the biggest issue is there arent enough good families in the world to drive around all the old people

I think everyone should have to take the test at least every five years if not more often.

Agreed. As long as old people stop having to pay school taxes. Why in the hell do People that are over the age of 60 still have to pay local school taxes and such? I can't imagine any of them have children in grammar school.

The statistics say No. They should have to pass an eye examination. Oh yeah, they Do!
But, if the laws were changed and seniors are subject to more regulation, who does the regulating? Federal government or states?
Good luck telling Florida they have to take driving safety courses @ 65.

Dude I'm 60 and I'll meet you at any track you choose and wax your tail in any kind of race.
Zero tickets and zero accidents in 45 years of driving and I can get you to Vegas from LA in under 4 hours.
Looks like another perfect day.

Totally agree. Every 5 years after age 65 should be mandatory re-take. Wouldn't oppose every 3 years as an option either.

Again, EVERYONE should have to retake the test every few years. It baffles my mind that you get to pass a test at age 16 and are granted life privilege to operate a one ton land missile.

You'll wax his tail in any kinda race huh? How about a reading comprehension race? We said age 60 so yeah in five years you'll qualify, but seeing as I'm already nervous you don't read signs properly and have a lead foot you may need to go ahead and take yours to be safe.
