“I have a friend who believes that anyone over the age of 75 or so should lose his or her license, which has resulted in a number of animated discussions between us.”

Most of the older drivers I know,and I know many,are self limiting.
I no longer drive after dark and also avoid interstates. My annual mileage is extremely low.

Imho, drivers of any age should be evaluated based on their driving record. My friend and I disagree on that issue. I believe that the older one is, the more wisdom is earned. Does that apply to everyone? Of course not, but it is one of my concerns that in these days respect for maturity has plummeted. We lose so much because of that.
