Government should move with the times

letters 3Letters to the editor

As people are now required to work until they are 67 years old before they qualify for the age pension, why aren’t other age-triggered requirements moved to match?

Instead of 75-year-olds being required to see an optometrist and a doctor to get their licence renewed, why isn’t that moved to people aged 77?

Think of all the GP appointments that would save.

And why not move the driving test requirement for 85 to 87?

Everyone knows we are living longer so why doesn’t the government move with the times?
