I remember years ago I went on a job interview in FL (while I was visiting my sister). I think it was in Tampa (memory is fading there)...anyway... we were driving back to sister's up I-4...saw a car to the right of us going slower and slower and slooooooower.... we passed and looked over...the guy was ASLEEP- nodding off...omg...we didn't stick around - a little hard to stop and warn the driver in the middle of a highway. This was LONG before cellphones were easily available too. <gulp>.
I like the idea of folks over 70 being tested but not all of them really need to be. My father is over 70 and I swear he drives like a 20 year old some days :P He drives better than ME. (sad fact). Mom does okay but she hates driving anywhere like highways and cities (always has anyway).
Everybody looks like that kid when my dad drives sometimes lol- remnants of his teen years with hotrods :P.

Especially here in Florida... with the 90 year old's that are somehow still holding onto their licenses... Mind-boggling, really.
. are the cops act is right? if wrong doing then, your ex have right complain to report police dept office or getting your lawyer.
It's tons of fun!
...I'm in Florida, but not "nearly dead"....I may drive like hell with my V8...but I damn sure get there....No tickets in over 15 years....(hence, used to have a "heavy foot")....Mainly, (for me)...it's the teenagers that scare the crap out of me...then again, I've seen some elderly drivers (especially women) that drove really bad on the Expressway, weaving in and out of traffic without looking....and don't forgot the Friday and Saturday night Drunks....and the "Road Ragers"....
