RE: Another Challenger Owner Has Expired
I'm scared of old women drivers and I stay away from them. One time I saw one try to change lanes without looking for other cars. She plowed into another car on the road, which in turn plowed into a parked car, which in turn plowed into a newsstand. So that's 3 cars and a newsstand wrecked in one accident. And this was in daylight under good driving conditions.

RE: Another Challenger Owner Has Expired
Why in Gods name was she still driving?????? Sorry, but all of us will reach a time, (if we're lucky) when we just shouldn't be behind the wheel any longer...and in a Challenger...not the best choice for a senior citizen considering it's dimensions and lack of visibility. The 40 something son should have known better...........Sad story none the less.......
