Pensioner Banned From Driving

[DannyboyDS]

Pensioner banned from driving until 3000

Finally, maybe this will help introduce mandatoy re-testing at each lisence renewal.

Honestly if I got 100% (That means the "Yes" box was ticked for all items on my test) with only 60 hours of experience then anyone who has had a lisence for 10+ years should ace it.

"I have done nothing wrong but the police have targeted me."

Ha hah ahahaha thats gold!!!!

Ha hah ahahaha thats gold!!!!

that must be an aweful feeling, being targeted by police because of your age

Just seems silly she has been banned from driving till the year 3000. she not going to live for another 991 years a silly punishment

Why not just ban her from driving till she passes on....

Its the same as serving consecutive life sentences, it sounds good and makes the punishment sound worse.

[CrimsonThunder]

Im sure shes looking forward to the next millennium.

[BANKS]

sucks for the courts and people with parked cars if she cryogenically froze herself for 1000 years, with all her links with drugs dealers i think that could be organised

Yeah that what i forgot to add that it makes it sound better to most of the general public but some of the punishments they come up with sound stupid....

Agreed, they should have just said " a gazillion years"

[Grennan]

Did anyone else find it ironic that her surname was "Relic"?

[Commydoor]

Mebbe she was driving a pulsar.

[jas98]

If I had my way public whipping would come back in.

Just saw her on a news update, she could barely walk. How the **** does she think she can drive!

lol yeah should see the ones around here...drive all over teh place then when they park (after nearly wipeing out 4 cars while doing so) they take 10 minutes to get out of car then another 5 to walk from car to pavement (5 meters away) fair enough there old but gezz. also im not saying every elderly person driving on our roads are dangerous ....i mean there are heaps of ones that can drive very good and look like there 100 ....its the same as p platers....you get ya good ones and ya get ones that cant drive....its just the p plate that highlights that there a p plater otherwise they would just be another person on the road

[MikesCalais]

haha its funny how she kept trying to hit the cameras but her thing kept breaking... ahhh karma, sometimes it doesnt even wait to bite you in the arse.
some people are just funny.
My 86yo great grandmother stopped driving when she was about 70 because she was smart enough and curtious enough to not put peoples lives at risk! Anyway, my point being, my grandmother would still be more competent behind the wheel of a car than that lady!
what can you do but laugh? At least this story didnt end with a tragedy, which is what were all so used to these days...

and has anyone ever taught this lady how to catch a bus? its not that hard if my grandparents who can barely 'speaka-da-english' can figure out how to catch like 3 connecting trains im sure she'll manage..

[NORTI]

I'll see if I can find an online copy of my local paper..... one of the front page headlines & story inside on a related story......

Seems one of our 70 year old neighbours thought it would be a good idea to get drunk xmas day & do ringys in his car.....

Police arrested this 'hoon'..... oh so sad.... lmao! charged with drink driving & damage to the road....

Front page reads '70 year old hoon caught' I found this extremly funny.....

[Stressball]

My grandpa will need to hand his licence in some time soon... He's not going to want to He's stubborn, thinks he can drive as well as he ever could. If he's telling the truth, no wonder the road tolls in the 70s were so bloody high.

Man, 70, loses car after Christmas Day burnouts - Local News - News | News Review Messenger

[Stressball]

I think that link came up somewhere in another thread yesterday... Maybe the 170kmh 78yo hoon one. What is it with this spate of 'old' hoons? How awesome would it be if they were the new media targets? A taste of their own medicine (which one?) would be good.

My grandpa will need to hand in his license soon!! I know he gets very cranky with drivers and quite frankly at 80 his age would be taking a toll. Eyesight etc. He has also had two knee reconstructions.

After the family coaxing him out of his Fairlane, he bought a brand new Focus.

Now my Mom and Nan are trying to make him get an even SMALLER car, lol.

My pops pretty cool, he takes his german shepard in the focus to the newsagents every morning..

If you feel he is a danger to himself or other roadusers on the road, do something about it. The life it saves might just be his own!

I'd do it in a heartbeat, but for now, my Nana is still a decent driver, and grandad is ok, besides my pethate of left foot braking. If i feel they can't drive, i'll be reporting them. I'd rather a bus bound grandparent that i can visit, rather than visiting a cemetery.
