gly simple answer: no.
In France, the B license is valid for life, except in the case of a serious offense or a court decision. No medical test or mandatory check is requested from a certain age to drive a private car.
Unlike countries like Italy or Germany, which demand medical check-ups after the age of 70 or 75, France has chosen to center on individual responsibility.
A Smart Solution
Senior drivers can, if they wish, have their abilities evaluated by their doctor or a licensed physician. They can examine eyesight, reflexes, coordination, and even recommend driving only during the day or avoiding certain risky situations.
Another good option: refresher courses. These courses allow seniors to relearn the Highway Code, to better understand updated informations (such as roundabouts or driving assistants), and to benefit from positive feedback on their driving.
