Old Drivers
Many old people drive cars without thinking well and they have some troubles or accidents. Nov. 12 a 79 year-old man drove the car in opposite side of superhighway. The man lacked a sense to drive a car in superhighway. According to the companies of superhighway, last year there were 934 accidents like this.
How can we keep out these accidents? First, families of old people need to cooperate with each other. Sometimes, a family rides a car with the old and check whether the old man can drive well or not. In addition, it is also useful for old drivers to retake the exam to renewal drivers license. There is a exam old people can take to renewal their license. If the man had some problems, he could not get one. Many people don’t know the system, but this is good to reduce traffic accidents brought by old person.

I am so interested in this topic. The retaking the examination is good. But even old people have a right to drive. So it is not always good thing.
When I get in to my parent's car, I see some elder drivers who drive very very slow. Since they are very slow, they were really close to the crush. Also it makes harder for other young drivers because they must watch out for elderly drivers. I saw the news that government is willing to make them have a test for signs and eyesights. I also believe that old drivers have to be aware that they are not so young as others with good and responsive eyesights by make them learn in the program.
