That'll be the sensationalist tabloid reporting style that is rife within the BBC these days - you only have to watch the local BBC news to see what desperate rubbish they sex up just to fill a few minutes.
In essence, yes this is a great first step to ensuring that the increasing number of very elderly road users out there - are up to scratch. Actually handing in their licences voluntarily is unheard of. Remember that the oldest of these people never took a driving test - it was just something they were able to do.
Simply, having a driving licence is not a right - it is a privaledge upon demonstration of ability.
Rant over.
