“In the same way that young motorcyclists are banned from driving motorbikes over a certain cubic capacity, older drivers should be banned from driving cars over a certain size. They don't see/notice half of what they should, and the idea of an elderly, half-blind and half-deaf driver with reaction times half as slow as younger drivers, driving such a large and lethal car frightens me.”
