Drivers aged 65 and over already double those under 30

An analysis of driver licenses in Castilla y León reveals that drivers over 65 years old now outnumber those under 30. This trend is observed across all provinces in the region and is largely attributed to the region’s demographic pyramid. The data highlights a growing proportion of older individuals holding valid category B driving licenses, which allow them to drive conventional cars. The report notes this shift as part of broader patterns in mobility and demographics.

Bias read (Center): The article presents factual demographic data without overt ideological framing. It discusses trends in driver demographics and attributes them to population structure rather than taking a stance on policy implications. While the issue of aging populations and road safety could be politically saliēn
