Now, if only I can remember where I left my keys will be off on a hoon. That's if I can remember where I parked the car.

This never fails to amaze me

"Older drivers, though, were quick to point the finger when things went wrong, the study found."

Old person cuts you up and proceed to call you a w*&nker?

^ if there was a attitude test then 99% of the youngsters would fail that!

The one thing that strikes me with older drivers is the Peter Kay comment about his mums driving, she hasnt had an accident in 20years but she has witnessed thousands. In my experience I have had to take some pretty evasive action to avoid oldies who have pulled out in front of me, cut me up, drifted across lanes on roundabouts. Im not saying youngsters dont do that, of course they do but as the article highlights it is almost always the oldies who fail to acknowledge their mistake!
