Apparently "British" over 60's will have to take a driving test every 2 years!
This is a posting from another forum by a member known as "Dangermouse"
.......................................
New law arriving in cyprus.
In April any one over 60 will have to take a driving test every 2 years with their residency. Because recent studies have shown that the majority of small accidents in the trnc were caused by retired ex-pats. This info has come from a the top. And is 100% correct.
......................................

(Reference to another web page has been deleted, but would very much appreciate further details on the forum here. - some of us are concerned about the over 60's piece as I believe it was over 70's that would have to take extra tests. Please could you copy and paste whatever it is. I would hope that there is some official source form U.K.)

Interesting!
