I got t-boned this summer by an elerly woman who shot out of a parking lot without stopping or looking.. I saw it coming, had nowhere to go, as there was a car coming in the other lane, couldn't swerve, brake or nothing... she told the cop she didn't know the road was there, thought she was still going to be in the lot!
No ticket issued............
I also know of an elderly lady who renewed her liscence online, because she knew she'd fail the eye test! She has macular degeneration, drives a Town Car... and hates coming to a traffic light if there is no cars in front of her... see, she can't tell which light is lit!!!! Her Family doesn't want to deal with havng to lug her around... hope they got a lot of liability... accident waiting to happen, as she is now good for 5 more years!
I live in God's waiting room, (Orleans), oldest population on the cape, see them back up without looking, all kinds of stuff... as much as I think the youger ones might speed a little, and have distractions... I'll trust their quicker reaction times, and superior vision Anytime!
