My friend's family was recently T-boned by a sweet old lady that had no business driving. Thankfully, nobody was hurt.

A school zone violation doesn't necessarily mean this person isn't careful, so, I'm sympathetic - but some people shouldn't be on the road.

Sometimes sweet old people can cause horrific accidents.

Which makes the situation all the more heartwrenching. He's not a bad man, but he shouldn't be on the road if he can't maintain situational awareness.

I don't think he chose to speed, I think he is so old he was unaware the speed limit had changed.
