I truly believe ppl over 80 shouldn't be driving anymore

catsanddogJan 26 at 3:14 PM

@linger82 I see what you mean. That said, I bet that far more accidents are caused by young male hotheads, than are caused by drivers age 80plus.

KrozichJan 26 at 1:08 PM

This guy was a old neighbor and he always looked like he had a hard time handling this car. Desperately hoping everyone is ok.
