What driving restrictions should be placed on older drivers?
No driving restrictions whatsoever should be applied to seniors as a group. We need to always remember that the majority of older drivers are safe and represent the most experienced drivers on the road. It is really a question of function or ability rather than age. Many people remain safe drivers throughout their life and, consequently, the ability to drive should be evaluated on an individual case by case basis.
