RE: senile old duffers
It is a very good job that the numbers of drivers who have never had to pass a test is reducing rapidly. Most older drivers who had to take a test are perfectly capable on the roads of today. Your beef should be against the about 1 million drivers who regularly drive without Licence, MOT or Insurance, and cause a lot of accidents whiuch cannot be compensated for. Recent case of 8 year-old mown down by just such a driver, who justly deserves our wrath. Most of the oldsters who get "confused" do so because of the medications they are on, which puts the onus on the GPs who treat them.
All the best, Peter
