'As people age, they are more likely to suffer from health conditions.'

The Royal Malaysia Police has proposed that the government limit the issuance of Motor Vehicle Licences to senior citizens.

Bukit Aman Traffic Investigation and Enforcement Department director Azisman Alias said this was because the health condition of senior citizens could be a factor that contributed to road accidents.

Propose only...hahahaha then later suddenly become announce as law for elderly compulsory to go for medical checkup prior driver license. It is not getting bad, it's getting WORSE!

Seriously? I would like to see d stats of accidents involving seniors...

How about the rempit?..

It's a superb idea, as long as the govt pays for the seniors' medical checks. But don't just stop at that. We also ask PDRM to do a study to see which group of people or politicians are prone to accept bribe. Then propose to the govt to ban them from holding public office.

What is in PDRMsia's head? One case like that and PDRMsia is telling everyone that? What will PDRMsia tell people next? Lock up all old people? Is Malaysia now becoming like Pol Pot regime?

Has a comprehensive study been done and what are the findings....? Do that first and then propose. Do you know how many senior citizens are fending for themselves.....?
