Do we really need to say anything about the elderly and their ability behind the wheel that hasn’t been said before?

Don’t get us wrong, it isn’t like there aren’t young people tearing around our roads behaving like hooligans too. There is a certain finesse, however, that comes with smashing your wheels through a pharmacy shop front in Durban North. Here’s News24:

Her car came to rest inside the pharmacy, laying waste to several rows of shelving.

Crisis Medical spokesperson Kyle van Reenen said that the woman, who sustained moderate injuries, had lost control of her car while attempting to park…

“The driver alleges that the accelerator got stuck whilst she was parking, causing her to lose control of the vehicle. However the exact facts are unknown,” Van Reenen said.

The good news is that no one was hurt in the accident. The driver treated on the scene before being taken to a nearby hospital for further care.

Note to self, be careful when parking anywhere near to the older folk.
