Default Surprised at cart, car accidents? Close calls?

Why are you surprised every time someone posts something that you can directly link to ....GASP!...an old age community.

Bad eyesight, less focus, minimal reaction time, poor hearing, regression to spastic responses to normally expected problems associated with old age.

Get a grip folks. Most people are only going to get increasingly stupid. Not because they want to, but because the human body(in most cases)that is failing. The only thing that increases are gas, naps and stupid decisions.

Default Carts

It ain't just us geezers, friend. I can't count the number of times landscaper and contractor trucks have drifted into the cart lane, causing me to brake hard. I confronted one of those drivers a while back. He gave me his cell phone to key in what I was saying to his translation app.

Stupid is so not politically correct.

after just returning from a quick drive up to Cleveland to visit family I can tell you that I'm far more concerned about my safety when I'm driving outside TV than inside

makes me wonder what the driver education classes have actually been teaching / covering these past five decades
