Elderly Drivers - Unsafe at Any Speed?

By Regina Coeli DeWinter (Page 2 of 2 pages) Become a premium member to see this article and all articles as one long page. No comments

It's time to take the initiative and require those 65 and older to re-test for their driver's licenses. This MUST include a thorough road test in varied conditions to see if we can still safely navigate the increasingly complex, crowded thoroughfares our road systems have become.

"The book is very well written...very important in this individualized capitalistic illusory world that enslaves us all within its tentacles and forces us to believe that we are atomized and disconnected beings. Indigenous Lakota people end prayers with "Mitakuye Oyasin...all my relations..." An ancient African proverb states, "A person is a person only because of and with others..." This instructive text is very useful for us living in what we are always told is the modern world, because it reconnects us all and reminds us that ultimately, the endless circle of the Universe binds and connects us all and the Earth is Mother to us with no hierarchy...the ones at the bottom matter the most...like the ants who build mounds and hills, all working in unison and harmony...the book teaches that we were created for community and our destiny is organic community...anything else is doomed..."

Julian Kunnie, Professor of Religious Studies/Classics at the University of Arizona and author of The Cost of Globalization: Dangers to the Earth and Its People
