Nightmare more like, only enlightened for me by the caring attitude of nicholas parsons, ' what? some dead body on the track ? does he not realise how many people have paid to see me? ' says it all for me

Re: old people & driving
Yeah, all a little bit scary; though I suspect when I hit 70 my opinion will have changed completely

Re: old people & driving
When most of us hit 70, there won't be any petrol left.
I fully support the idea of testing older drivers. I also fully support the idea of re-testing everyone periodically. But older drivers seem to be particularly bad for 'losing control and accelerating accross car park / crossing / etc.' There are many around here, making the lanes particularly dodgy. One old lady died recently from natural causes, when I heard my thoughts were not for her family, but more 'won't need to look out for the old bat in her Berlingo any more' - sad but that really is how bad she was on the road.
