Well I can understand the mom being confused and not knowing where she is. My mom can say something and in five minutes will BELLIGERENTLY deny having said it. She's 714 and I KNOW she has Ahlzheimer's, so this 78 year old probably does too.
It's also possible they both suffer from some sort of genetic disease that causes confusion, and the son doesn't know he has it yet. Huntington's Disease for example.

A Utah state trooper pulled over a car traveling the wrong way on Interstate 15

"Funny, all the signs were blank..."

Well, no wonder they had trouble finding their way!

Las Vegas might have been a hint.

They must have seen all the neon and glitter, and figured they were at Pacific Park on the Santa Monica pier, off Colorado Avenue.

Nah. Bewildered Californians are nothing out of the ordinary in Vegas.

In Utah, they got an overnight stay in a hotel fixed up by the local sheriff. In Vegas, they'd be lucky to get a comp poker chip each.

There was a 78-year-old mother in the car and they didn't have to make some potty stops?



That car must have a very big gas tank!?!

Well at least she had six hundred or so good years.

Traffic was really wild too; could lead anyone to believe they were still on the LA freeway.
