Are there any first world countries that retest drivers regularly? I still think drivers should pay for their retesting. It doesn’t seem fair to put that on the taxpayer.
The bigger thing increasing premiums and health care costs is the dangerous road designs in north america rather than the age of drivers. It also increases municipal spending to maintain borderline highways running through the city.
dangerous road designs in north america rather than the age of drivers.
It can be both things. You are correct, the road designs are dangerous, and the lack of driver education about road safety, and constant retesting, especially in the elderly, contributes to that.
Additionally, the size of our vehicles on the road increase the fatality chances dramatically in collisions/crashes with other vehicles and especially pedestrians.
There are numerous factors that all add up to be the hellscape that is driving in America. We don’t need to fight against one of those to promote another.
