Province of Utrecht – About 191,000 young people aged 17, 18 or 19 had a driving license at the beginning of this year. That is about 14 percent less than in 2019, the last year before the pandemic. At that time, CBS noted 227,000 young people with the pink card. The number of people over 75 with a driver’s license is increasing sharply. According to the statistics bureau, this is due to the aging of the population and because older people are more often behind the wheel at a later age than in the past. The Netherlands has about 28,000 people aged 90 and older with a driving license.
