If the driver would have been younger, they probably would have going faster and her injuries would have been worse.

The driver was apparently 84 YEARS OLD. Seriously... just make it a law that you lose your driving privileges when you're like 70? I can't stand old people that don't know when to hang up their keys and stop driving. Reese is lucky to be alive.

Wait until you're age 70, and you might feel differently. Most states require a diver's test after age 80. It really depends on the health of the individual. Treadmills are always safer.

Look, when you're that age your ability to react quickly and focus degrades with age. You're driving a lethal multi-ton weapon. Responsible people should know better. I also don't think anybody under 20 should drive. They're usually still idiots.

Good to hear she's on the mend. I like Reese and wish her a speedy recovery. Was the driver of the car cited, taken to jail or what ROL?
