Good insurance.

Owner sold a sandwich and got the gas station rebuilt.

+ lots of people who saw it in the media stopped by to have a look and filled up at the same time.

Oh dear, we had a caravan knock over a pump at work before didnt even stop. I do wonder at some people I see, one old dear in her starlet in particular springs to mind. Cant park just swings in and hobbles off only to return and spend the next 2 hours in her car chain smoking. Theres another one in her yaris, covered in dints and scratches. When she gets out she cant even stand up straight and walks everywhere looking downwards. Old people shouldnt be allowed on the road, there a danger to everyone doing 40mph usually on the limiter in the middle of the road.

I think at a certain age you should just have to sit another test. Reactions and skills undoubtedly go down hill as you get older. Bet a large portion of older ppl wouldn't pass the test.

No but you have to re-new your licence I think every 3 years or so. And you dont have to disclose any medical info. But they do ask you to tell them if there is a problem!!!
