Not sure why you are getting downvoted, they must have a vision of 77 being a crumbling old man, but out in Vancouver I see people in their 70s doing mountain hikes and jogging, and have their full faculties. There should be testing across the board as we age, but age shouldn’t have be a cutoff for license.
My great uncle gave me a ride home once, he was 95, he was 100% with it mentally, and handling the manual transmission like a champ. He was a great driver.
Exactly. My grandpa was a fine driver well into his 80s, and he stopped when he was about 90 because he needed a walker and getting that out of the car was a challenge. I don’t think he had a single accident in all the years I remember (something like 20 years).
Some 60 year olds shouldn’t drive, and some 90 year olds are some of the best drivers out there.
