I remember seeing alil old lady in aus that had failed the driving test so many times now. There really should be a point at which a "look honey you just aint cut out for driving" card is issued instead, meaning these tools can never ever get a license.

Dan Rutter (largely) discussing how dangerous anyone driving is; the gist is that people driving cars is a pretty weird (and extremely dangerous) thing when you think about it.
