Probably a redlight camera.
Terrible picture to see Another reason for mandatory testing above 60.

I got a red light camera picture out on Sunset. It's soo much fuzzier then that and takes a pic of hte driver and a shot the back of your car. That looks like photoshop work to me. Whatever it is, it sure as hell isn't the intersection camera.

<--300 dollar ticket

Wouldn't do any good to test them. In my state, if an old person fails say, the eye test, all he/she has to do is ask for help and the DMV people will pass them anyway.
My grandma's best friend can't see past her hood, but got her license renewed anyway.

Mandantory testing past age 70 should be instituted. 60 is too young.

and they spell "photo" "foto"

but yes, old people suck worse then my sisters at driving (and they're young, female, and asian!)

Asian females are the worst drivers in the world, NO CONTEST.

The problem is old people vote so politicans don't want to touch this topic with a ten foot pole, so we the young people have to suffer.

Maybe if we voted more often the politicans would listen to us. just a thought...

Bah!

Mandatory license removal at 70. That is the only logical answer.

Yea, and how many politicans would even touch that issue? I could probably count them on one hand. They all know that old people are dangerous behind the wheel but they don't want to risk their political future.

Think about it. Your 65 yrs old and a politican wants to retest old people. Will you vote for him? I doubt it.

if a politician proposed that, I would actually go out and vote for him, and I think a lot of people, both young and mid-age, would as well.

 

[DrPizza]

Well, why don't we all suggest mandatory testing to start 35 or 40 years from now? Then, the politicans can actually accomplish it without pissing off voters.

The problem is old people vote in droves. They are usually more likely to vote while we sit on our asses.

Old people have nothing else to do with their lives except go to the doctor every day just to chat because they're lonely, go out to vote because they can see their other blue haired friends there, and die. Most of them should just take the third option and save us all the trouble of dealing with them.

i don't know about that... a chance to get old people off the streets is something that's very appealing to many people. I'm as lazy as they come and I would jump into my car right now and go vote if i could.

When you're old and still feel like you have some years left, I hope you remember to take your own bullet, so your kids won't have to deal with you, either.

In ATOT, everybody's either <150 or >250. Everybody. Anybody who says otherwise is lying.

Not true. I am 220.

Old people are like young people, drunk. Slow response times. There ought to be a biannual test once you pass 60.

Agreed

that would be great

If it was photo-chopped it's a damn good job. Check out the expressions of the people in the car on the left.

I dont see any shadow on the other pedestrians on the sidewalk. I'm not 100% sure it's fake, it could be the camera... but I would expect more shadow than just the small bit under the woman's shoe.

 

[KokomoGST]

Well, people think driving is an entitlement... not a privelege in the US. Biannual tests would be great... I'm just wondering how the DMV would handle that... ugh.

Those poor lesbians lost their luggage. Shame.

Wow, i must be slow because it took me ten minutes to figure out what just happened.
