This.
And seniors need to be tested further on their ability to drive. I see just as many decrepit old people doing stupid shit on the road as I do N drivers.
If a pilot has to retire at 65 to keep flyers safe, i think it's totally reasonable to expect someone who wants to pilot 4000lbs of metal around pedestrians to be able to pass a second road test.
Also they really need to look at some sort of solution for people who insure two vehicles who are the primary (and only) operator of both vehicles. To me the discount on a second insured vehicle should be enormous.
Right now I am insuring two cars for 6 months of the year, only to drive my FX like 5 times a month, and yet I pay full insurance on it. Thats retarded, I should get a discount based on the fact that I clearly cannot drive both my insured cars at the same time.
