Driving Tests for Those Over 75 Years of Age

Back to all Motions

Conference
2006 Retired Members' Conference
Date
13 June 2006
Decision
Carried as Amended

Conference deplores the proposal to introduce a compulsory driving test for those persons over the age of 75. The implementation of any form of driving test without discussion and consultation with affected parties and without the production of evidence to support the need is discrimination against the older driver.

Conference therefore strongly requests the National Executive Council to call upon the Government to abandon this proposal.
