i hear people saying this a lot. when do we realize there is a problem, with reactionary thinking? after something has happened. that's why i am for retesting using a timeframe, not after an accident, but using the accident as an added deterrent, like this: retest everyone, regardless of driving record, every two years, like your inspection. if someone gets into an accident and it is found to be that person's fault, then send them to get retested every year until their points are removed or they stop driving.
retesting using a timeframe, and including everyone - not just the elderly - is proactive and it shuts up all of the would-be-crybabies that would scream age discrimination or some such ********.
the bottom line is to make the streets safer, which the seatbelt laws were meant to do but really are just a way for local cops to grap some more of your hard-earned greenbacks.
