No, I disagree on that one, older people's reflections are slow and usually they tend to go under speed limit, possible causing accidents..... Another viewpoint, from someone who is older than 80, is that it is entirely an individual matter. Regularly scheduled tests of driving skill would be appropriate for people of all ages. In some states it is illegal to go too far under the speed limit, thereby blocking the free flow of traffic, even if you are a young, inexperienced driver who just wants to be cautious. But those of us, old or young, who sometimes go slightly under the speed limit, in the slow lanes, under some conditions, are aware that excessive speed kills, too. Accidents involving slow drivers may be caused equally as well by young hot-heads who tailgate, weave, and change lanes without signalling, letting road-rage contaminate their judgment.

Driving abilities can vary greatly among individuals, regardless of age. It's important to assess each person's capabilities based on factors like physical health, cognitive function, and driving history rather than setting an arbitrary age limit. Some seniors over 80 may be perfectly capable of driving safely, while others may pose a risk on the road.
