Well, age base for drivers, yes, but I think over 50 is a bit harsh.
00:07
To be honest, I think 50 plus drivers, they've got the experience.
00:12
I drive myself, I'm actually over 70.
00:16
Your licence, they last for three years.
00:19
Once you're 70, you have to renew it every three years anyway, OK?
00:23
I'd say 75.
00:25
But I think as they get to, like, maybe 70, 75,
00:30
maybe go and see someone, talk,
00:34
have a little drive around and see how they are.
00:38
But I'm sorry, you know, I'm...
00:40
Youngsters, I see people driving cars every day
00:43
who shouldn't be on the road, I don't think,
00:45
and they're well under 50.
00:47
So to say people over 50 can't drive is absolutely ridiculous.
00:52
I reckon they should go for another test.
00:54
As they get older, every two or three years,
00:58
go for a driving test.
