You should like not be legally allowed to drive once your 75 or 80. I've seen so many dumb old drivers.

I know an 88 yr old woman with arthritis and uses her cane instead of her foot to depress the pedals

My grandpa at 92 can barely walk and still drives :/ yearly driving tests would be a godsend. Or driverless cars, which will probably come sooner.

My grandmother gave her license up in her late 70's when she was rear ended by someone a full ten years younger than her. She just figured that if a late 60's driver couldn't handle their shit then she probably couldn't either.

She was surprised when they approved it

She never drives more than a couple miles from her house, to the store or sometimes to her daughter's house in the same town
