You wouldn't find it so funny if it were your father. Personally I think we should get the know it alls like you off the road who think they are so experienced they can drive and use their mobile or sit up someones arse in the outside lane because they are in a hurry. Shut up until you have something intelligent to say you clown.

I agree there is a lot of dangerous older drivers who are not fit to drive, but we do NOT know the circumstances in this instance, so my condolences to the gentleman's family.

Statistically, you are more likely to be killed by a young, unmarried, unemployed, uninsured, unlicensed, male, driving a car he can't afford, or has stolen, at a speed which he thinks is perfectly acceptable, (normally twice the legal limit), because he is just the best driver in the whole world, well at least it felt that way on his Playstation, or X Box. Old people may sometimes go too slow, but they very rarely go too fast, which is generally why people die on the road.
