Road safety is a major issue across the globe with millions of accidents needlessly occurring each year, leading to injuries and casualties. In order to prevent such travesties, it has been proposed that vehicle drivers take a road test each year to ensure their ability to drive does not decrease. The merits and demerits of such a proposal will be discussed.

In most nations, drivers are generally required to take vision, written and road tests to determine their eligibility to drive, which for most citizens tends to occur in their late teens or early twenties.

After successfully obtaining a licence, the majority of individuals do not need to retake an exam for several decades until they become senior citizens. The rules of the road also change as time progresses and drivers who obtained their licences decades ago may not be aware of legislative additions. Moreover, as time goes on, drivers may forget the traffic laws they learned when they were mere teenagers or young *s as their ability to remember fades. Therefore, requiring *s to retake the test on an annual basis might reduce traffic accidents and promote greater road safety.

On the contrary, retesting is merely one way to educate drivers and determine their capability to drive. Government can disseminate new policies or changes to legislation through the news or by directly sending messages or e-mails to the populace. Furthermore, retesting each and every driver every 365 days would be time-consuming and extremely costly for the government to arrange such a large number of tests. This would require an enormous amount of driving instructors to be hired to meet the demand of such a large undertaking. Moreover, not all drivers pose a threat and perhaps only those who break the law or are flagged by police officers ought to immediately retest rather than excellent drivers who have spotless records.

All in all, I firmly believe that re-examining drivers would be beneficial for road safety by reducing the number of accidents that occur on the roads. Nevertheless, not all drivers ought to be retested and only those who skirt road rules or get into accidents need to prove they have the ability to drive safely.
