'Should not be driving!' Karren Brady fumes as older drivers given pass to run red lights

The Apprentice star was less than impressed with the initiative.There have been calls for older drivers to take mandatory eye tests when they go to update their licence, in an effort to reduce deaths of over-70s in crashes.Currently, the minimum penalty for running a red light is 3 points and a £100 fine, with the points remaining on the driver’s licence for four years.Prosecution may occur where any part of a motor vehicle crosses the white line at a red traffic light and increased penalties may be imposed to reflect more severe offences.The report’s proposals, to be considered by ministers, state that trials should be set up to assess the benefits of fitness tests and recommend that a scheme already running in Hampshire should be.
