old people and people with certain medical conditions should be re-tested at various stages for motor skills and diving ability. they’re constantly a danger with their awful depth perception, reaction time, motor skills, and they slow traffic lending to already compounding traffic issues. and I am certain nothing gets done on that front because it’s the same old people who are in charge of deciding such laws and lord forbid they do the right thing even if there are inconveniences.
these fucking zombies will be on a laundry list of heavy meds then throw a fit when you suggest they’re unfit for driving, fuck outta here
Yeah. One of many reasons why car-centric infrastructure is a problem. It creates a world where If you can’t drive you’re going to deal with some combination of: significantly less independance, exorbitant amounts of money spent in Ubers/taxis/ect., or a severely limited access to society. Unless you’re obscenely wealthy losing the ability to drive significantly lowers your quality of life and ability to support yourself, forcing lots of people behind a wheel even though they really shouldn’t be there.

I have no counterpoint or immediate solution to offer and I am glad you covered the greater picture. It sucks.
