Just some anecdotes from an expat: My landlord is 80+ and cycles everywhere. My parents in law are 75+ and are about to get rid of their car altogether since they either cycle or take public transport. My aunt in law is close to 80 and changed from manual to electric bike a few years ago after a stroke.

yea. plenty of places in the world where people don't have cars in general and afaik old people get by just fine. Japan does not have good bike infra like the netherlands but the majority of people don't use a car much either
