Mary Feeney, 80. Driving Assassin.

More or less dangerous?

It seems that Mary Feeney, 80, was leaving the hair salon when she had a bit of driving trouble.  According to http://www.msnbc.msn.com/ Ms. Feeney clipped more then her hair that day:

“IFD says Feeney was leaving a hair salon when she veered back towards the salon building, shearing the gas meter and striking the building. From that point, Feeney drove through a bush, hit a fence, turned her car and hit four cars on her way out of the parking lot.

Feeney then drove across Ferguson Ave. and struck DEA Inc., an architecture firm across the street. According to the report, Feeney backed up but went forward, hitting the house for a second time and striking two additional vehicles on Ferguson.”

IFD is the “Indianapolis Fire Department,” a group that must have been quite busy that evening.  So, now that you have read the story, is there any chance that you might be starting to agree with the statement that I started this blog with?  Now I know that not all elderly people are bad drivers, but the ones that hit 6 cars and 2 houses certainly are.  No offence to Ms. Feeney, but I hope for her sake (and ours) that that was her last hurrah on the roads.
