That would probably explain why some fora that are specific to the Villages, harp on old people who shouldn't drive. Get a whole bunch of old people together, make everyone who isn't old a significant minority (less than 20%), and you'll probably see a lot of old people doing a lot of stupid things, and very few younger people doing a lot of stupid things.
But that's because there just aren't a lot of younger people in that location.

I'm not sure it has anything to do with age. You see some really stupid driving mistakes, but I think the person driving probably always drove stupidly and people like us kept them alive all these years.
The biggest thing we notice is people jumping out in front of you from a side street when there is absolutely NOTHING behind you and they could have waited two minutes for you to go by. No commonsense, but they probably never had any commonsense to begin with. One of these days they will jump out in front of someone who has slow reflexes and that will be all she wrote.
