2 WHEREAS, The National Safety Council (NSC) in partnership 

3with the Illinois Secretary of State (IL SOS) holds that safe 

4driving is a lifelong journey of learning and skill 

5development and age alone should not determine driving 

6ability; and

8demographics are evolving, NSC research demonstrates that age 

9alone is not a determining factor in driving ability; and

11drivers steadily decreases as driver age increases; and

1979 and 86 who were required to take a behind-the-wheel driver 

20test, only 97, or 0.17%, failed the test and were denied
