    How so? What percentage of serious accidents are caused by “geriatric patients”? Are they the same group as seniors (people over 64)? If not, should we maybe find a way to not lump them together?

    The truth is, most serious vehicle incidents are caused by men between the age of 16 and 26.

    Maybe we shouldn’t allow THAT age range to drive, despite all the competent drivers in that group?

      My intuition suggests seniors aren’t a greater statistic because they don’t commute for work or school and drive fewer overall mileage.
