According to the California Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System, there were 583 fatal crashes involving older adults in 2023, reflecting the growing concern over senior drivers.
The California DMV cannot revoke a driver’s license solely based on age, but it enforces special requirements for drivers aged 70 and older to ensure safety.
Drivers over 70 must renew their licenses every five years by passing an open-book eLearning course, allowing personal evaluation by DMV staff.
The California DMV aims to help seniors maintain driving independence while ensuring their safety through these additional requirements.
