drivers liscence reneral over 80

[Robert]

are there any additional requirement to renew your drivers if your over 80 other than the doctors certificate.  I was told that if your over 80 you have to take a drivers test.

[Keith Woolford]

You have 5 more years.

Trámites de Renovación A, B, C, D (Nacionales)

• Original y copia de cédula vigente
• Presentar licencia física (la misma se adjuntará al expediente)
• Realizar validación visual y auditiva
• Debe estar paz y salvo con la A.T.T.T.
• Pago, B/. 40.00  (incluye Validación visual y auditivo)

Si es mayor de 70 años debe de traer un certificado de salud física y mental emitido por un médico geriatra o de medicina interna.(Art. 116 y 117 el reglamento de tránsito). (Debe indicar el nombre completo del usuario, número de cédula de identidad o pasaporte, sello y firma fresca del médico). Vigente no mayor de seis (6) meses.

*Se realizaran pruebas de manejo a partir de los 85 años, según las categorías que tenga la licencia.

I stand corrected by the expert. I have two friends who recently underwent this, and I would have sworn that they are 80 rather than 85.

[Keith Woolford]

..maybe they've been fibbing about their age

[BOB G]

I have renewed my license twice after age 80 with no driving test.  The information posted by Keith says "Pago B/. 40.00, but the actual amount is B/. 20.00 because the license is renewed for only two years. 

Another point is that after age 80 a geriatric doctor must do the physical exam and not a doctor of internal medicine.

[Amanda Firestone]

That's true. You must take a driver's test if you're over 80.
