Yeah, old people should have to prove they can still drive safely. Too many horror stories of grandparents who just didn't see the other car....

Heck, let's computerize all cars and forget the manual driving.

OH Jen! That would be no fun at all!!! I like to drive! It's part of my adventures!

But, yeah, I worried about my Grama a lot. After she was declared legally blind she still managed to have a license and drive for several years. She was very angry when she lost her license and I could understand her loss of independence. But, it was a relief to know she was not out driving. She now has 2 brothers still living who have no business driving. They are a danger to EVERYONE on the road or near it!

Makes sense from a technology/safety viewpoint. It sucks for removal of free-will.
