    Not to say 80 year olds should be driving, but a 14 year old kid has nowhere near the same amount of need for a car as an 80 year old would and the 14 year old can just as easily hop on a bike or have their parents drive them somewhere. I would hope an 80 year old wouldn’t have their parents driving them to the grocery store or doctors appointments.

      Many jurisdictions do have hardship licenses that allow people too young for a standard license to drive when circumstances require it.
