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?

Also what if they don't even have immediate family?

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

indeed.

also, what if.. they ate their own immediate family?

wait, which thread is this?

Well there wasn't any path for anyone to report anyone before so this is better than nothing.
