Correct answer
Five years before age 65 and three years from age 65.
Five years while the holder is under 65, and three years from that age, under Article 12.1 of the General Driver Regulations. Health circumstances may shorten the period. Turning 65 does not automatically invalidate the licence: check its expiry date and maintain required qualifications. An expired licence does not permit driving. The image illustrates a medical assessment without specifying ages or validity periods.
Legal basis: art. 12.1 RGCond
