Being able to drive crucial for senior citizens


I REFER to the report “Senior driving licence remains unchanged for now, says JPJ” (The Star, Nov 25), in which the Road Transport Department (JPJ) director-general was quoted as saying there is currently no decision on whether senior citizens aged 65 and above will need to undergo a competency and health assessment before renewing their driving licence.

He reiterated that although there are plans to introduce these additional conditions, they remain at the policy state within the Transport Ministry.
