Old folks driving in cars.......sort of

Ok, I am CONVINCED that old folks who drive need to take a drivers test. Why? Well, let me enlighten you. I was at the stop light at the end of our cross street and directly behind a car with a "handicap sign" hanging off the rear view mirror. Occupant: 1 old lady. Ok, my first sign of trouble was the white "back up" lights were on. I gave her some room because I figured she'd gun it and hit me. Good call, cos that's just what happened (except the hitting me part, I gave her enough room thank goodness). Then, after recovering, she punched into D and took off. I was still behind her, and she and that Mercury Grand Marquis kept swerving between the two allotted lines. I felt like I was in the scene of Ferris Bueller's Day Off where his Dad is trying to pass the little old lady with the beehive hairdo. Scary. So my remedy? If you are of the "older" generation and feel the need/have the ability (so says you) to drive, you HAVE to take a test. No do overs either. If you fail, that's it, kaput! I know it sounds harsh, but c'mon! My daughter and soon my son will be on the road. I need to know they're not going to be run over by Grandma Moses in the Mercury Grand Marquis!!!
