Always sad news. The post title alone was enough to cause a few goose bumps. Unfortunately, it is all too easy to lump us all together and label us with blame. Let's not be careful to do the same with elderly drivers. Many should not be on the road, yet many are very careful and have years of experience and are still safe on the road. (I am not defending the actions of the driver in this particular incident, as it appears on the face of it that they are significantly, if not totally, to blame).
The big problem is the bias of the media, who will continue to re-iterate and promote popular opinions at the expense of facts, thus perpetuating any prejudices and preconceptions that the public at large may already hold.
My thoughts go to the families.
