A number of accidents involving elderly drivers in recent months have sparked a debate over whether seniors should continue to take the wheel.

Is age truly just a number, or does the decline in physical and cognitive abilities over time present a growing risk to the safety of our roads? Should we, as a society, take action and set a maximum age limit for driving? Or do we risk infringing on the autonomy and dignity of our elderly citizens, who may still possess the skill and wisdom to drive safely?

On The Hot Seat, we are here to debate a question where the future of our roads may depend on the choices we make today: Should there be a maximum age limit for drivers in Singapore?

Hongbin Jeong speaks to Dr Kwa, Lecturer, Public Policy and Global Affairs Programme at the School of Social Sciences, NTU and Walter Theseira, Associate Professor for the Economics Programme at Singapore University of Social Sciences as they discuss the pros and cons of a maximum driving age limit here in Singapore.
