The DMV does not require an on-the-road driving test for driver's license renewal applicants past any certain age, spokesperson Ronald Ongtoaboc said. This is in the California Vehicle Code, in section 12814 (a), which says, The age of a licensee, by itself, may not constitute evidence of a condition requiring an examination of the driving ability. The DMV can, however, restrict driving privileges for a driver of any age who demonstrates they are unsafe to operate a vehicle.

The Newsom administration is backtracking on a plan to indefinitely revoke 17,000 commercial drivers licenses held by immigrants. The original plan came after harsh criticism from the Trump administration about California and other states granting licenses to people in the country illegally. The issue was thrust into the public's consciousness in August, when a tractor-trailer driver not authorized to be in the U.S. made an illegal U-turn and caused a crash in Florida that killed three people.

A Central California driver of a Nissan Sentra was pulled over and cited for driving with a drawn license plate instead of a proper one. When it comes to art, everyone's a critic, including the California Highway Patrol. In Central California last week, the CHP stopped a Nissan Sentra that didn't have a state-issued license plate but instead had a piece of homemade pop art on the back of the car. The CHP deemed the creative handiwork unworthy and cited the driver with a fine of $197 for driving without a proper license plates.
