I have seen many incompetent drivers of all ages. I can almost always spot an elderly or unskilled driver from a block away because they are the one's driving 15 or 20 mph BELOW the speed limit, changing lanes without looking or simply assuming that they "own the road." I'm sure they tell themselves that they are fine drivers because they have never had an accident. That however, does not make them good drivers. I think ALL drivers should have an on-the-road driving test every 5 to 10 years regardless of age.

If he is a capable driver, then a test is irrelevant. You take the test, you pass, problem solved. The DMV rule isn't about anonymity, it's about the safe operation of a vehicle. He should stop whining and take his medicine.
