Guest: Dr Khor Hui Min, Consultant Geriatrician

In Malaysia, where many of us depend on cars to get around, it can be hard to imagine giving up driving one day when age catches up with us, especially when we see Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad still driving in his 90s. In fact, Malaysia doesn’t set an age limit for drivers to give up their licences, nor does it plan to, as Transport Minister Anthony Loke recently said. So how can older adults keep driving safely and when - or how - should family members have that conversation about giving up the car keys? We find out from Dr Khor Hui Min, consultant geriatrician.
