We ask Birmingham: Should OAPs have to take extra tests to keep their licences?

With concerns about road accidents involving older drivers, we ask locals whether they think drivers should be taken off the roads at a certain age, or if extra testing should be introduced to keep everyone safe.

Concerns raised in a recent discussion highlight the potential for declining eyesight and reaction times impacting driving safety as individuals age.

Under current laws, people over the age of 70 can keep driving without taking a test - but after four tragic deaths linked to drivers with poor vision, commentators have warned the system could be “too relaxed”. The UK’s senior coroner has also called for change, saying UK driving laws are the “laxest in Europe”.
