Driving While Mature

As loyal local lurkers know, one of the Cat Sanctuary humans has been involved in an accident recently. She, of course, maintains it was totally the other driver's fault. I wasn't there, but visualize the accident as it was described to me as one in which both drivers were somewhat at fault. Nevertheless...consider this quote:

The other driver's statements at the scene strongly indicated that a drug test would have been appropriate...but the traffic court judge automatically assumed that the 70-plus driver just needed a brush-up driver's training course! Please beware of stereotypes, Your Honor.
