    Tighter health checks for professional drivers / Labour Department's domestic helper ticket giveaway

    主持人:Janice Wong and Paul Zimmerman

    On Wednesday's Backchat, we're talking about plans to tighten health checks for professional drivers.

    To help improve road safety, authorities are planning to lower the age of mandatory annual health checks for professional drivers to 65 from the current 70. Those suffering from specific conditions such as night blindness would not get a licence.
    While some support the changes, several representatives of the transport industry have spoken out against the tightened rules — saying the plan would force many drivers to quit.
    So what do you think of the plan? Does it strike the right balance? Should even non-professional drivers be subject to more stringent health checks?
    After 9:45am, we get reaction to free Ocean Park tickets given out by the Labour Department, in a new campaign for households to show gratitude to their domestic helpers.
