#1 RETESTING SHOULD BE REQUIRED commented, on April 23, 2008 at 3:24 p.m.:

The elderly, (God bless their Hearts) Should have to retest for their drivers license every so many years after the age of 60!!! There are a lot of mental and physical problems that increase after that age. Think the teenage drivers are having problems, lets look atThe "Babyboomers" generation.. The to "Young or the to Old" behind the wheel is a very dangerous situation..
Either way, Slow down and have patience...
