    Hmm

    Illinois Secretary of State Alexi Giannoulias alongside AARP Illinois

    Guess the old regulations might have been eating into profits

    Still out of 55,000 administered tests only 97 failed. Imho they should keep the restriction because it did remove 97 unsafe drivers.

    However, This also creates a path for immediate family members to report unsafe elderly family members. There was no way to report anyone before this was created.

    So is it midlyinfurating? I suppose in that it may allow unsafe drivers to stay on the roads but with immediate family reporting it could also be a wash. I very much doubt these changes will pull more unsafe drivers than the regulations from before since family members will probably be hesitant to report elderly family members

      why should reporting be limited to immediate family?

      if the neighbors see mr. jones take out a shrub or hop curbs the rest of the world ceases to matter, just immediate family?
