And don't forget these are the same cops who would write up that 29 year
old man for the ticky-tackiest little thing, perhaps due to defective
intersection design on a friday night. Yet, this 89 year old runds down
a couple dozen people and it's oh we have to figure out what happened
before issuing a ticket.

27 injured when car crashes into festival crowd
Witness: 'There was no warning and no screaming'

Sunday, July 9, 2006; Posted: 8:28 a.m. EDT (12:28 GMT)

NEW LONDON, Connecticut (AP) -- An 89-year-old man driving through a
crowd at a summer festival panicked after striking one pedestrian and
lurched his station wagon through the throng, injuring 27 people, city
officials and witnesses said.

-------------------------

I bet a million $ he says the accelerator pedal stuck.. The seniors
magazines are always advising the geezers to do that when in fact the
guy is just an incompetent driver due to his age. And since the
seniors know that no one wants to lock up an 89 year old guy, they
keep right on driving when they shouldn't.

Cite one magazine - "seniors magazine" or any other - that gives this
advice to drivers who are in an accident.

I don't get it. The guy claims the accelerator stuck. Witnesses report the
speed of the vehicle between 10 and 15MPH. Let's assume for a moment that
the accelerator WAS stuck. Were the brakes also defective? What about the
parking brake? I suppose the tranny shifter was stuck, also? Any car
moving 15MPH or less should be able to stop within a few feet, and it
shouldn't matter if the engine is still pulling or not. -Dave

This guy belongs in prison and only a criminal coddler like you would
say otherwise.

Or the ignition switch? Couldn't he just switch it back to "off," and
cut the engine (yes, I know he probablly won't be able to remove the key
with the transmission in gear)?

You said the senior's magazines advise the geezers to lie. Then when
you're called on it, you can't back it up. Hmm. How atypical of you,
liar.

Things going ok for you down there?
