yeah so I think like maybe not necessarily like a guarantee that they're
00:03
off the roads but they should definitely be told I feel like every 25 years you
00:09
should do a test again it's a very good point I think this should definitely take
00:12
extra tests because obviously you can't really discriminate against someone just
00:16
due to the age and you can't restrict them of driving but as you mentioned I
00:21
think they should take some tests and test if they are driving a bit like if
00:26
their ability for driving is a capable enough because obviously as you mentioned
00:29
as accidents happen a mental test and a physical test if you cause some sort of
00:35
accident or you feel like I think it should be free test people who feel like
00:39
they could possibly need it I think that'd be a good incentive to get people to
00:42
worry about their driving because if you say you're an 80 year old and you were you
00:45
worried if I take my test again now or tell someone I'm worried about the way I
00:48
drive they're just gonna take me off the road and that's it but if they were say
00:51
I'd go to someone and go well if there's somewhere I can make sure that I'm
00:54
driving safely for less money and you know I mean make sure everyone's safe
00:58
I think that'd be a lot better
