Drivers in Greece aged 74 years old and above will have to renew their licenses to prove that they still have the knowledge and reflexes to drive safely. According to a decision by Transport Minister Christos Spirtzis that was published on Tuesday, all motorists will have to resit a basic driving test, without the written exam, when they turn 74 and will have to repeat the test every three years.
