A FLORIDA DRIVER'S LICENSE IS ON THE WAY

...to this alert motorist.

Key Quote: "At first I didn't think anything was wrong. It was quiet. Then I saw cars coming towards me. It was quite scary and I didn't know what to do."

Gee, that's a tough one. Maybe... STOP DRIVING THE WRONG DIRECTION?

Go Granny! 81 and still hip enough to crash a Fiesta!

*re-reads article*

Oh, wait, nevermind...

Hey, it's just your basic commute on I-75. I'm astonished she could see over the dashboard.

Sunday drivers!

Strange that the article discusses her wrong-way driving and people being hurt in a car accident as if they were two entirely unrelated occurrences. Were they? If in fact the poor woman caused the accident, then it's just sloppy reporting not to come out and say so...

Helpful hint - when all the street signs are facing away from you, GET THE H$LL OFF THE ROAD.

LMAO @ MKJ's Mr. Magoo!!

Steve - I think that reflects how Granny saw it. She never even knew she caused an accident that injured 4 people. I mean, hellooooooo....

It's the UK. EVERYONE is driving on the wrong side.

{"The officers were really nice. They asked if I had been drinking but I feel very strongly about that and would never drink and drive. I haven't decided if I will stop driving. I feel a bit silly about what has happened}

Maybe someone other than Granny should make this decision.

Maybe she could make that decision herself after visiting her victims in the hospital.

Only if someone else drives her there.

Touche', Tex!

And these people used to have an EMPIRE? Wait. That's right. USED to. Got it.

This reminds me of people who yell at the bus driver for turning the wrong way, only to be told they're on the wrong bus. (Then of course, demand the driver take them to their desired location, anyway)

Merri-where does that happen? Inquiring minds want to avoid that location.

"George! I'm calling from I-95, and you won't believe --"
"I-95? My God, Martha, be careful! On the news, there's some idiot driving the wrong way on --"
"Not 'some idiot', George, dozens of them!"

And she's from Darwen...just sayin'
