Driving from 70: New rules could change everything for older drivers
Introduction:
For many, driving means freedom, independence, and control over their daily lives. But for drivers aged 70 and older, current political discussions in various countries indicate that this freedom could be significantly restricted in the near future. Whether it's more frequent medical checkups, mandatory follow-up tests, or even restrictions on driver's licenses, the new proposals raise questions and concerns for seniors and their families. What will change, and how can drivers aged 70 and older prepare? Read on for everything you need to know.

Rising accident rates among older drivers in complex traffic situations
