That's a major problem IMHO - many GPs will sign elderly patients' licence applications just to get them out of the surgery, with little thought to the consequences.

But then many of them still give out antibiotics like they were sweeties, ignoring the antibiotic resistance crisis (although the biggest offenders are farmers, actually).

(steps down from soap box)....
