An elderly woman lost control of her car at 78th Street and Fort Hamilton Parkway in Dyker Heights this morning. The vehicle jumped a curb and hit a number of pedestrians. The victims were taken to Lutheran hospital, two victims have non-life threatening injuries while two others are in serious condition. 1010 WINS adds that there was an 8-year-old child in the car. In another incident in Brooklyn, a 91-year-old woman was killed by a n 18-wheeler while she was trying to cross an intersection.




I still don't understand why they don't make old people take a driving test every couple of years. Seems like it should be common sense. I'd rather get in a car with a 14 year old driving than a 90 year old.
Is this the way to the Country Kitchen Buffet?
And a bicyclist gave me a dirty look the other day!
Damn, Felix beat me to the South Park reference.
Wow two elderly women as both the cause of and also the victim of vehicular mayhem.
Now THAT'S fair and balanced.
What a way to go after living for 91 years old.
