All broken

We got hit in our rear the other day. My car is munched. I have to take it in to get fixed tomorrow. It doesn't look really bad, but there is a lot of damage. Most of the back will have to be fixed, and some of the front.

We were driving to the PO to drop a couple of letters off. Traffic was kind of backed up. We had to stop just past a traffic light. We had been completely stopped for about 15 seconds or so when a car behind us ran into us and pushed us into the car in front of us. The car had to have been going around 30 mph or so. Why would someone plow into us when we had been completely stopped for that long? Well, because the driver was 90 years old, that's why. I have no idea what he was doing or what he was looking at. But yeah, he just plowed right into us. I wasn't really hurt, but Dallas had some neck and stomach pain, so I took her to the hospital after to get checked out. We had been there a few minutes when the 90 year old dude came in with his 88 year old wife. I guess she was mildly hurt too. They sat right across from us and didn't say a word to us. Don't you think if you rammed into someones car and sent them to the hospital you would at least say something? Like, maybe sorry? Or are you ok? I guess not.

Well, Dallas is ok, so that's good. She was sore for a few days. I have a request for everyone, though. If you live to be 90 years old, please stop driving. Seriously. Just don't drive. I know you will want to be independent and everything, but is that really worth risking everyone's safety? If you can't even be competent enough not to drive into a car that's been stopped for 15 seconds, don't you think that's a good sign to stop driving? Now don't get me wrong, I love and respect the elderly. I really do. I just think more common sense should be used. Actually, I have always thought it should be harder to get and/or keep a drivers license. I have seen way too many drivers doing things that put people in danger. When I used to deliver mail, I had a route that went right by a high school. I was amazed by how recklessly teenagers would drive out of their parking lot. They didn't have any sense of how dangerous they were. Anyway, now I've gone of on a rant. Just drive carefully ok? And if you can't do that, just don't drive.
