Too old to drive?

Are elderly drivers, with mild dementia, safe behind the wheel or should they hand in their drivers license?

Dementia affects one in ten people over the age of sixty-five but its effects vary and there's not one, easy test to determine if someone is safe to drive with mild dementia.

While road safety authorities warn of an increased risk of accidents over the age of seventy, it's a difficult decision to relinquish a licence and rely on friends, family or public transport.
