Los Angeles officials say that an elderly woman accidentally hit the gas instead of the brakes outside a car dealership on Wednesday morning, driving into the building and leaving one dead.

It’s my god given right to drive a 5,000lb vehicle. Any attempt to make sure I’m fit to drive this safely is an assault on my god given rights.

    It’s not strictly american. I’m not american, and here we have plenty of elderly drivers, it makes me worried when I see them. Luckily we have good public transport too.

      You missed the point. It’s an American problem because our public transport got gutted or never even existed in the first place.

        I don’t think they missed the point, they just expanded that it isn’t only an American problem.

        This is a problem in many countries besides America. The same shit happens in Canada. I remember elderly people crashing cars into buildings on the news occasionally growing up in Fake London, Ontario
