First go counts...I have the reaction speed of a 34 year old apparently...

The science:

A multitude of studies have shown how, as we age, our brain reaction time begins to slow down. In 2014, researchers at Simon Fraser University in Canada analysed 3,305 people aged 16-44 by testing their performance on a real-time strategy video game, and found cognitive decline appears to begin at the age of 24. For every 15 years after the age of 24, cognitive speed dropped by around 15 per cent. One test you can try out to see whether this might be the case has just been launched by JustPark, created from a survey of 2,000 people aged 18 and over. It simulates a drive through a wooded area with warning signs for deer and speed. After a few moments a stop sign will flash up on the screen, at which point you need to click to stop. Your age is predicted based on the average age of people with your reaction time.

Shitcramps. 77. My quickest was 55. I'm 40. I suppose really i've learned that if i ever have a driving licence that i will intelligently and maturely plough through some idiot who jumps in front of my car instead of causing a multi-death pile-up behind me or steer madly onto the side of the road to fatally wound a set of picnic-goers or doggers.

Looking at the figures there is approximately a 500 millisecond difference between the reaction time of a 20 year old and that of a 70 year old - at 70mph that equates to a difference in stopping distance of 51 feet or about 4 car lengths!
