Rejected petition compulsary driving retest at 65 years old

More details

A lot of elderly drivers have never taken a driving test and the ones that did took a very simple test on quieter roads.
I feel that elderly drivers should be retested at 65 if they wish to continue to drive this should replace the current system were they merely have to tick a box saying there still fit to drive.
