Driving in Later Life

Getting older doesn’t necessarily mean you have to stop driving. As long as you can drive safely, it is up to you to decide if you want to carry on.

This guide looks at how you can safely stay on the roads for as long as possible. It explains your legal obligations around driving, including declaring medical conditions and renewing your licence from the age of 70. It also discusses how to know when it’s time to stop driving, and other ways to get around.
