I saw this video last week & it's a relief to know the victim survived. A 2nd I've seen lately of senior citizens running red lights ... The other one was in Germany when a golden girl ran a red light & hit someone crossing. Thoughts of stricter driver testing beyond a certain age & building in an observation test ... :)

Golden Girl is polite slang for an old dear Storm, you know as in 'the golden years' ;)
This is scary, the most popular ones here are the twits on phones who aren't looking where they are going... that said a lot of pedestrians here just step into the road without looking!

Huh????

The Golden Girls was a TV series featuring 3 ladies living in retirement in Florida.

I didn't watch the vid but don't really see what age has to do with this. It's true that some older drivers get confused & do daft things. Maybe they should accept that it's time to stop driving. I see plenty of stupid idiots of all ages that should never be allowed to drive a lawnmower, let alone a car, every time I go out on the road.

If  you read it, it the pedestrian crossing against the light.

Sad to say I've seen pretty much the same thing from my cab, about 18months ago...... :(

Alas, not enough left of the victim to even attempt first aid..... - Mercedes Sprinter (white van man!) 49MPH in a 30zone.....  :'(

Thats chilling. That could happen a million times and the person would not survive. Thats truly amazing. ::)
