Make that five years after 65 and three years after 75.

Then every two years after 80, every year after 85 and every three months after 90.

Trouble with that is that there are some drivers that are much younger that shouldn't be on the road. Years ago my uncle wrote a car off by not going wide enough when overtaking a parked HGV/trailer. He hit & bent the A post of his car on the corner of the trailer - he'd have been late 50's/early 60's at the time. It just confirmed why I was always reluctant to get in a car with him.  :-?

Yeah, but in those days it was ok to drive rotten drunk.

In the 70's, when I was working on building sites, everyone used to go straight to the pub after work, then head home via the off-license about ten o'clock. Everyone on the road was drunk. If you were weaving too badly, the police would tell you to go straight home and definately not stop at any more pubs.

Some things never change hey Steve

Shouldn't you be mopping up in the Gulf of Mexico?
