For centuries, humans have often found themselves debating how much freedom should be sacrificed in the name of safety.
Although many take Benjamin Franklin's words on the matter to heart when he said, "Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety," the reality is that debates like these continue because the level of freedom and security at stake vary from case to case.
While you've likely seen modern variants of that debate centered around the ethics of mask mandates, it's also applicable to an idea in the United Kingdom that could have implications for older drivers the world over, depending on whether it catches on.
