An elderly woman loses an appeal to get her driver's licence back after failing two driving tests, including one where she amassed 182 penalty points — 160 more than a fail mark.

Of course, the real story here is how the elderly (and everyone else) are fucked over by car dependency and its associated suburban sprawl, shit public transport, and unwalkable neighbourhoods.

    Being disabled isn’t a matter of if but when for everyone. Expecting everyone to be able to drive literally tons of metal at high speeds around for ever is losing bet. Heck people with no current disability can’t do it all the time.
