Stop the persecution of older drivers.

Background

Stop the unfair proposed changes to the renewal of the over 70s drivers license. The dangerous drivers on the UK roads are not the elderly but, the younger irresponsible people. They are the ones more likely to disregard the speed limit and othe highway code rules.

Additional details

The proposed changes will require pensioners to pay privately for medical reports from GPs and opticians. Money that the majority can ill afford. For many the car is their only means of travel . The only way to visit family and friends or to attend appointments. It would take me hours on various buses to get to hospital should the need arise. A journey I could take in the car in 45 minutes. Without breaking any rules of the road
