Thank you for posting this information. This was my point exactly about those who continually bash the "elderly" drivers because they are the ones with medical issues. Anyone, young or old, can die from a "medical event" at any time.
Many times, "elderly" is a perception among younger people. My co-worker's husband was a mechanic. He was commenting one day about an elderly lady who had brought her car in for service. When I asked him just how elderly she was, he replied, "Oh, somewhere around 40 or 45." (I was 42 at the time.) Of course, he promptly assured me that he didn't mean me. I later asked him, after he turned 40 how it felt to be "elderly".
