It's different for men than it is for women.

I dont see the point of a post like this. There are a large number of guys over 60 who have been on this forum for a long time. Why post a topic that attacks people, puts them on the defensive, and is generally offensive to a number of members? To group all older people in together is stupid. People age at different rates and deterioration of skills is a individual thing. You paint with a very wide brush.

The reason I asked those questions is that my truck, which until Wednesday, only had 1 scratch on it, was hit by an old when he moved over into my lane while driving. He said I thought I had more room which makes no sense at all, considering there was absolutely no room in my lane, as my truck was occupying that space. This guy was in his late 50s, and Im convinced that he is both an old, and that he should lose his license. So by that logic, the 20 yo punk speeding and weaving in and out of lanes while on his or her cell phone should recieve the death penalty Physical castration would serve to reduce the testosterone levels and slow him down as well as keeping his stupid azz from breeding.

Your probably one of those knuckle heads that drives way faster that everyone else while cutting in and out following about a half second behind the vehicle in front In your big tailpipe, lifted, Cali style 4x4. All the time they think they are such great drivers. They are a menace. *youre
Team wolfs I had to perform. It took a minute to get it all in my mouth and another five to swallow it all.

Olds are the worst when it comes to door dings in a parking lot. They dont care and will ding the shizzle out of the car next to them. A lot of it has to do with their inability to park correctly.

I'm 64 and will race you down the boat ramp backwards. I drive a postal truck daily as many of you know. I miss mail boxes by 2 inches, 100's of times a day. I dodge all the cars on the curb and have to look behind every time I move away from the curb or pass a side street. I make an average of 700 or more stops a day. 34 years and the only time I hit anything was 10 years ago I hit my side mirror on a street sign which broke the mirror. I've been hit by moving cars 4 times in that time. One in traffic, twice while I was stopped and one while driving in a parking lot and a person backed into me.
Age should be a factor but acumen should be the reason and if they passed a law that said a person over 60 had to take a test every 4 years to prove they had the cognitive skills necessary to drive I would not be opposed to that.
