The issue of driving is one of the rights that has been a topic of dispute, especially the rights of the elderly population to drive. It’s not an easy topic but individuals may treat the issue as a dichotomy. We all age, that’s a fact of life, but at what point do we start giving the rights we were born with up. The act of driving is not a simple task but requires the integral of all body systems coming together to perform the activity.

Car ownership is not only for pleasure, but for convenience and a means of livelihood for some people. Although I agree that it is important to reduce cars on our roads and have other means of transport, I do not think that making laws against car ownership will solve the issues.
