This almost tops the "Stupid things Thanatos has done" list

My insur with an 01 car that i'm paying off is 219 a month, with full coverage, no wrecks but I have had 2 "outrageous" speeding tickets, 63 in a 45, and 76 in a 45.. blah, but what's weird when I had my jeep, my rates only went up a little bit (when I got the tickets), but when we put the strat on the coverage, it went from 93 --> 219... /month. Sucks

THAts the fault of the goverment.

Thanks for posting.

I know males are more likely to get into an accident ...but I'd like it if they factored in miles driven, etc. I'm sorry, but most of the females I know are a lot worse drivers than the males. I guess guys just push the envelope too much.

Elderly drivers make me nervous. I hate to be prejudiced, but their reaction time is just naturally worse than (most) younger people.

Minivan moms who talk on cellphones while speeding through school zones piss me off.

I absolutely loathe old drivers. I believe they should go into the DMV routinely (maybe every year) and take a test to determine if they can keep driving, starting at age oh.... 70.

This is a true story, no exaggerations: I was at the liquor store waiting on my friend to come back when the old lady that parked next to us got back in her van to leave. It took her five (5) minutes to back out of her spot. She would go about an inch, brake, look back, go another inch, brake, look back. THERE WAS NOTHING BEHIND HER.

There's no telling what the elderly are capable of when driving.

Have you seen the South Park episode of old people driving?

What makes me wonder is how some of these older people who can barely walk without assistance and have obvious muscular or neurological damage (as evidenced by perpetual shaking) are capable of operating what amounts to a motorized leathal weapon.
