Old Drivers

[jambutty]

The current system may not be perfect but its what we have now and tinkering with it will only discriminate against some drivers.

To all those under 65’s clammering to get the older drivers off the road just remember that one day you too may reach 65+ and when you do your view will change.

So be careful what you wish for today.

woohoo do I win a prize?? or karma at least and am I also a sad muppet??

Noddy, wait until you have more posts under your belt before deducting karma. It doesn't even go red, just a dreary, but a very fitting, grey colour.

heh, your figures are a bit out, ABI2006 puts number of private car owners as 25 million. It would not be unheard of to improve things that some people feel are too 'hard' .

Even taking this number 25million = 5 M/year across the 370 test centres = 40 tests per day extra. or at 45 mins each 5 extra examiners/centre. Not exactly unachieveable now is it. You would probably save nearly 5 people (traffic plod/nurses/doctors/ambulance/recovery drivers/insurance assessors) each day in reduced accidents etc.

See, think things through and its not that hard to come up with workable solutions.

There's your problem .... too many cars crammed into such a small place ... time to get rid of some of them ... or build a bigger island
