Dear Editor,
I am whole heartedly in support of Governor Patrick's proposition to retest elderly drivers. I understand that elderly people are protective of their licenses, since they assure independence. I do feel that the safety risk justifies feelings being hurt. Whether they decide to test everyone when they reach a certain age, or instate tests throughout your life, there's no need to hesitate. The elderly drivers who are able bodied behind the wheel, will not need to worry about the test. The only ones who really need to worry are those who won't pass the test, and those are the drivers who shouldn't be on the road. Driving in a car is one of the most dangerous things we do on a daily basis, and anything that's going to make it safer is worth it.
