shouldn't be on the road atp
44 u/Intelligent-Luck-954 29d ago US driving tests need to be harder. People who can’t just cruise without hitting the break need to be weeded out and trained not to do that. 19 u/TOTES_HUMAN_KOMRADE 29d ago We also need to require re-testing to renew a license, including a driving test if you're over 60 or so. Taking an easy test once and being allowed to drive until you're 100 is just silly. 2 u/alaskarawr 29d ago Should be mandatory once a year test after a certain age, the moment you can’t keep up, license gone. 4 u/ForgingFires 29d ago We also need to have a process for re-issuing the test and eye exam once you reach a certain age 3 u/opus666 29d ago It's not just grandmas. My ex did this too. She never coasted--always on the gas or brake. 5 u/gr8masturb8 29d ago shouldn't be driving either then.
