I personly agree with you. So many people are hurt do to older people that shouldnt be driving. I remember this old lady driving what I that was an building on wheels, and just straight merged right in my lane. The down side is I was in the lane....LOL. Here in San Diego, you have to constantly look at the car on either side of you. I notice the merge in time and was able to merge into the next lane, but if there was a car on my right, it would be a wrap.
