BTW: I'm 68 and I own a 370 a X-Runner and a Bimmer and wait until your my age and I'll bet you change your idea about exam's
Nobody wants to have to retake the exam, but it's a good idea for public safety. If you can drive and are not at all demented than you should have no problems with it. On the other hand, if you're 68 like my mother-in-law, and can't remember what happened 5 minutes ago, and has totaled her car and can't remember doing it... then maybe you should have to retake the test.

The problem is that the laws are written by the people in question and therefore will never happen. They are much more concerned with raising the age in which you can obtain a license. And if you look at the numbers, more people are killed or maimed by seniors than teenagers.
