There are no solutions, only tradeoffs.

Said by the illustrious Thomas Sowell.

In this case, the tradeoff to driverless communities is not worth it.

I got my most recent license in 2017, good until 2045.

It's terrible. There should be an annual driving test starting at age 60

75 probably. 60 way too early for most people.

I've changed my mind. 55 it is

Now if you said 16 or 18 or 20, then you might on to something.

60 is a little young. Maybe 70 or 75.

My FIL was a very dangerous driver at 81 so we had to take away his license.

My dad will be 89 next month, and he just renewed.

He told me that he's afraid to drive, but his eyes aren't so bad on some days

He has me drive when I visit.

The eye doctor who approved him to write must be a moron

My uncle (a cop) couldn't believe they gave his 90s dad a license again.

Renewal doesn’t mean he will keep it

Jun 19, 10:05pm

I can tell you right now that I’ll go crazy when I can no longer drive. I probably drive 90 miles a day on average.

Edited from 80 to 90. It might even be 100. I go through a lot of fuel.

My dad turns 88 in 4 months and still drives great. Can still drive from Provo

That's just asinine. At that age, you're hard pressed to find a competent driver
