>In most countries, ability to read street signs is part of the requirement for a drivers license. Older people tend to develop presbyopia, they can see and read signs alright, i.e. they drive normally without correction lenses but they need them to read at "windscreen distance". At least at the time my father managed to collect a fair number of speed tickets, claiming that he couldn't see properly the speedometer. As a side note, "in most countries" traffic stops ending up in a shooting or more generally people shot by police are much more rare than in the US. The (unofficial) numbers reported on this Wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Police_firearm_use_by_country#Comparison_of_countries https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Police_firearm_use_by_country#... are impressive.
