Depends, oops, Freudian Slip.
We knew it was time to get my Mother-in-Law out from behind the wheel after pulling out in traffic and scaring us she said, 'They've got brakes'..

Unless there is a compelling reason. I heard there were proposals in England to have drivers of 75 and over renew their driving licence every year, and have to pass an eyesight test and have a doctors certificate of fitness before it is renewed. But it is still only a proposal at the moment.

It's less a matter of age than driving ability. If you can keep up with traffic and you don't have a condition that would cause you to be a danger on the road, keep driving.

I'd say at about 80 because then their response times becomes limited.

There shouldn't be a set age, it should depend on the individual's ability to drive in a manner that won't endanger themselves or others.

Not at any certain age. They should stop driving when they are deemed unable to do so by driving tests that seniors must take.

And that 60 year old photo is NOT representative of most 60 year olds lmao. Those people are like 70+
