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.

Once you reach a certain age, everyone should be tested regularly....both an eye test and a road test.
Some people in their 90s are fine, some others in their 70s are having problems.
(So I don’t think there should be an age cutoff, but I do believe there should be mandatory regular testing every year or so after a certain age....perhaps 70 or 75).
