Do you think there should be a cut off point in regards to age, when a person should no longer be driving?

I read this story yesterday... 😔

An elderly woman has died following a single-vehicle fatal road traffic collision in the car park of a supermarket.

The female driver, 91, was in the car park of a supermarket on Trinity Street, Wexford when the car she was driving hit a tree.

The woman was seriously injured and was removed to Wexford General Hospital where she later passed away.

She was the sole occupant of the car.

The collision occurred at about 1.50pm yesterday afternoon.

Well my grandma is still driving at 83. She has all her marbles. What i think is they need to do a health check and mind cognitive test before stopping anyone over a certain age from driving. Maybe there should be a set age when this test is required, say 70 for instance.
