    The elderly

    Why isnt there special tests every year for the elderly, to decide weather or not they get to keep thier drivers licence, every single day I encounter a bad elderly driver. Im not out here bashing the elderly but when your sight, and hearing start to go, and you cant hold you hand out straight and have it stay still, and you need a cane b/c you can barley walk, why the hell do you think you can still drive.

    I dont know either. I agree though, a lot of them drive like A-holes, or they cant accelerate worth a crap! Almost like the pedal is too hard for them to push down. My grandpa was 87 years old and drove like a maniac!

    The elderly vote in a bloc on issues of importance to them. Thus, no testing for drivers, no change in social security, and 65 year old millionaires pay the same for medicare as street sweepers. Politicians are scared to death of them!

    I throw shit at them. Like pennys--or i'll lay on the horn once I can pass, throw my car into cruise control, and moon them.

    Yes, i'm an asshole.

    NO, I dont give two shit's or a fook!
