This is why self-driving cars are inevitable.

I’m 68 and over the past few years I have noticed the deterioration of my driving skills and I completely agree ... driving tests every few years after 70.

I just hope I’m wise enough to recognize when I should give up my car keys or, at the very least, listen when others tell me it is time.

Onion fell off his belt and was rolling around on the floorboard would be my guess.

That happens a lot in my town. Rich old geezers who are too old to drive, and can’t see very well even with their glasses. But they’re driving Lexus, Mercedes and Lamborghinis. And when they crash into something or somebody, they get a relatively small fine and walk away. There will never be a law to restrict impaired old people from diving, because they’ve got the bucks and they’ve got the Power.

I crossed the crosswalk, when some old guy, drove through as if I wasn’t there. I would have been a hood ornament if I hadn’t been so quick.

I made him call his family or I threatened to call the cops.
