HERE'S WHAT I THINK

 

Old people should not drive !!

Take you life in your own hand I say, just get behind Ma and Pa kettle as they head off into the sunset. Speed limit just add 20 and your on it pops, looking for a park , grandad just cant get the car to manouver out as easily as it moved in. I'll just wait . Look out mums with babys, mum and dad crinkly wrinkly has just taken the last Mum with babys park. OH no they think its for handicaps only. I think I will change lanes now I will put on my indicator that will let the younger folk out there know I am about to move over without looking. Well you under 50s Ma and me are off with the trailer If I had my glasses on I might be able to see you in the mirrors.

Statistics for the argument 

USA institute of insurance

In 2006 older people (65 and older) made up 14.1 percent of all traffic fatalities, 13.5 percent of vehicle occupant fatalities and 18.9 percent of pedestrian fatalities, according to NHTSA.

In 2006, 81 percent of fatal accidents involving older drivers happened during the day. Seventy-two percent involved another vehicle.

In two-vehicle fatal crashes involving an older driver and a younger driver, older drivers' vehicles were nearly twice as likely to be struck than younger drivers' vehicles (61 percent versus 32 percent).

Older people make up a high percentage of the United Kingdom population and also a high percentage of our driving population. Figures from 2001 showed that over two million people in the United Kingdom aged 70 and over had a current driving licence. This number was expected to more than increase to four and a half million by 2015.

All people age differently but your health does deteriorate when you get older including your senses;
