Safeguards for elderly drivers


I REFER to the report “Grandma, 80, injured in road rage attack” (The Star, Sept 4). It was reported that Chan Tee Neo suffered a swollen left eye, bleeding nose and abrasion on her left hand after a minor car accident at 1.30pm last Saturday in Melaka.

Madam Chan claimed that the other driver, a male in his 30s, had hit her car, become aggressive and started to assault her. She also alleged that the driver hit her outside the Banda Hilir police station after a verbal spat and violently dragged her inside. Her son was quoted saying that his mother is an independent woman and despite her age, she still drives and manages the family business.
