Answer

Are older drivers in Mallorca subject to extra driving checks?

There are health requirements for getting and keeping a driving licence, but there are no blanket age limits. The debate in Mallorca is less about age alone and more about whether medical checks are applied carefully enough when health risks appear. Families and doctors often play an important role in noticing warning signs.
