- SoftTalker 3y agoBig difference between 60 and 85. But I do grant that at some point, people should give up driving if their vision, reaction times, cognative function, etc. do not allow them to do it safely.
- kube-system 3y agoYes, but the older end of the baby boomer generation being discussed is already starting to climb up in insurance risk according to those stats.
