 Elderly drivers. The official counts. - henry k
I know the subject of elderly drivers has been visited before but here are the official counts.
I am not sure if this is a count of drivers or those that hold a license.

"More than 1 million drivers on Britain’s roads are aged over 80 according to the latest official figures.
They include two 105-year-olds and one 106-year-old woman who is still behind the wheel.
In all there are 121 motorists over the age of 100 still holding driving licences"

"There have also been calls from motoring groups for road signs to have bigger lettering to cope with Britain’s ageing motoring population"
