I wonder if stats are kept on elderly who forget where the brake pedal is and cause accidents, or worse yet kill.

I'm shocked this isn't being blamed on the car, like the fictional "sudden accelerations" of Audis in the 1980s.

The law firm of Dewey, Cheatum and Howe is on the case and will be contacting Toyota.

Right! Grounds here for a class action suit against Toyota. New models must be equipped with an elder-proof package.
