EU wants over 70s to prove they can still drive every five years - eviltoast
"This is pure age discrimination. They cannot provide any evidence or figures to show that drivers aged 70 and over would be more often involved in accidents."

The European Union wants elderly people (70+) to undergo medical tests from now on to prove that they are still capable of driving a car every five years. However, the proposal has been met with a lot of criticism.

      That is true. We like the Monty Pythons more than anyone else does, we adore them! But we would never diminish this feeling by laughing about their jokes. Instead we do argue for hours about the philosophical implications of a silly walk.

        Yeah, with a philosopher like Beckenbauer that’s exactly what I’d suspect.

        However the efficiency of the killing joke does make one wonder how the primordial laughter gets unlocked. Alas, we’ll never know.
