    That story was about an 80 year old woman who got the wrong pedal, she wasn’t cruising at 120 just flying down the road. She shouldn’t have been driving at all.

    You’re not wrong though.

      What the fuck are the tests and license for if this person is able to obtain one. We need stricter testing and license requirements

        No disagreement there.

        I’ve always felt we should retest frequently even for healthy young people.

        Traffic laws change. Street signage changes. Car safety features change.

        It’s in all of our best interest that people aren’t driving with 25 year old ideas and 25 years of bad habits.
