Have you wondered that are older drivers still fit to get behind the wheel? And above all… should they be required to take tests, just as one would to retake an exam? One thing is clear: age isn’t everything. But certain signs should support caution.
Driving after 75: a benefit or a risk?
In La Rochelle, a terrible accident has occured. An 83-year-old driver hit a group of children on bicycles, injuring several people. She was riding the wrong way. This accident raises a question: until what age can one drive safely?
The data from the Road Safety Authority reports: drivers over 75 are involved in accidents as often as young people aged 18 to 24. This parallel may be amazing, but it is obvious with age, vision, reflexes, hearing and attention can reject.
Is there an age limit for driving?
A surprisingly simple answer: no.
In France, the B license is valid for life, except in the case of a serious offense or a court decision. No medical test or mandatory check is requested from a certain age to drive a private car.
Unlike countries like Italy or Germany, which demand medical check-ups after the age of 70 or 75, France has chosen to center on individual responsibility.
