91 year old passes driving test

Updated



Figures from the Department of Transport show that a 91-year passed their driving test last year, together with four other people that were over 80 years old.

It is not clear why these drivers took the test. It could have been because of an ambition to finally get a licence, but it could also have been because they had been previously disqualified. However, they are all some way behind the all-time record holder. The former Tory minister and peer, Lord Renton passed his driving test at the age of 94.
