German Wife Roadkilled . . . Twice

What is up with those kooky Germans. While browsing the internet, i find this:
BERLIN (Reuters) - A 75-year-old German was so shocked he had accidentally run down his wife he started forward and drove over her again, authorities said on Wednesday. Police in the western town of Bad Nauheim said the man compounded his 73-year-old wife's misery after an onlooker told him he had just run her over while backing out . . . The woman was rushed to hospital and survived.
This is usually nothing to laugh about, but that didn't stop me this time. Come on, he ran her over twice. He must have been wondering "who installed a speedbump in my driveway?". This reminds me of the old guy who plowed into the Santa Monica Farmer's Market because he thought that the gas pedal was the brake. Can we start taking away the old people's driver licenses already? I can't even begin to estimate the number of times I've almost gotten killed by an old man/woman behind the wheel of a Cadillac. Mainly because I was shooting an AK-47 at them, but come on . . . they're a menace behind the wheel. They must be stopped!
