Old Woman in Fla hits Salesman/Husband/Tree

[chaosProtege]

i should probably not even post on this thread cuz this s*** pisses me off so bad!! oh, well. i really think that when old people "hit the wrong pedal" they actually do it on purpose cuz they know that people will just say "its because they're old". just like the old guys at the grocery store get away with making rude comments to the cashiers "because they're old". what a load of crap. i think they hit the wrong pedal so they can **** some s*** up! old people suck at driving, moreso than stupid people; although i would probably put them in the same catagory. (chair) (dark) (protest) (help)

I think too many people are concentrating on her age. I'm more concerned with her gender, women drivers seem to be the problem. Putting on lipstick, talking on the phone which is pretty much attached to their head, checking mascara in the rear-view mirror, singing along with Rod Stewart songs, rooting through their pocketbooks looking for the garage-door opener or their ATM card or a tampon or their cell-phone.... I think the problem is that it was a woman driver.

Notice that she was accompanied by a man of the same age, her husband. He is old, and notice he didn't commit any damage, which means it is the gender which is the common denominator, not the age. BAN WOMEN DRIVERS (weakest)

i agree for the most part, but i know there are some chicks out there who can drive sideways between the lines.

ever driven around landfall? lol. this kinda s*** sucks even more when you are a delivery driver - ive never been run off of the road, just because im more aggressive than most, and with teh papa johns sign on, i have to be like hey cop (attn) to get pulled over, but ive had old people just turn into me, locked my brakes up and gotten sideways to prevent hitting an old person, had to pop the ebrake and go perpendicular to a car in an oncoming lane, then skillfully popping it again to get straight to avoid a car...all either old people, women, or mexicans. no offense to any i think there should be some sort of driver skill test every several years. not just for old people, but for everyone - they have them pretty much everywhere else, why not here? also there should be more stringent inspections - is a car road worthy for all roads? can that old beater with no insurance stop? go? also police need to do a better job of pulling non-insured cars off of the road. im deathly afraid that i will be hit by someone without insurance, and be screwed
