Seniors
Take Responsibility for Your Safety and That of Others
Getting older happens to us all, but remaining safe on the road should be something which is discussed openly. Don’t risk leaving it too late. The UK has some of the most generous rules in the world which allow older drivers to retain their independence without the need for additional checks or medicals. The onus is on individual drivers to decide when it is not OK to continue driving.
At Thames Valley Driving School we offer an understanding ear and genuine understanding of the situation which we will all face one day. Getting older needn’t mean giving up driving, but we can offer reassurance to drivers themselves as well as to family members. We can’t decide for you; that decision will always rest with you, but we can offer a professional opinion and our help where we think it will help.
