Abstract
Older driver testing in Australia, and around the world, is misguided. It relies on the opinion of health professionals rather than the capacity to drive safely. This paper examines the relationship between traffic tickets issued and a range of vision tests and concludes that the nature of the relationship suggests that tests of cognitive capacity might be more appropriate
