Medical professionals are reluctant to yank licenses because it removes independence (debatable in a city of course). This clearly should have happened in 2021 by this story, but I'd put I'd bet there was someone who susoected before the creash. Do we need cognitive tests or to start fining Drs who fail in this duty? Who thinks the DVLA will administer this? I'd bet it gets put onto GPs anyway, so you need a Drs note to renew over 80 essentially. And why also 80? Plenty of doddery 70 year olds. You can bet there would then be appeals too.

A tragedy all round, but we didn't see a law change after the Glasgow bin driver either

Nothing is going to change because no politician will ever do anything that will upset old people.
