Petition Make over 80s take a yearly driving test to help reduce the risk of accident

134 drivers aged over 70 were killed in road crashes in 2018 and the proprtion of overs 70s with driving licences increased from 45% to 67% between 2002 and 2018.

More details

As most people age, our general health and fitness, eyesight, hearing, reaction times and physical mobility will begin to deteriorate.

I would like this to be debated in Parliament because I believe that this could greatly reduce the risk of accidents and I personally have been in a car with someone in this situation and I did not feel safe.
