Just watched my elderly neighbour reverse into his mailbox. Barely any damage, but I just know he’ll spend the next 3 days ‘fixing’ it loudly with every power tool he owns.
yikes. Vic roads should probably have a “dob in an old person who shouldnt drive any more” hotline. Though TBH, one incident probably isnt enough to make that judgement call. But its a small step from there to “Was trying to park and accidentally ran over the wife and went through a shop front”.

is the car ok?
Might have cracked his bumper a bit but that’s all. He was going very slow, but managed to knock the box over.

I’ve seen him drive around locally and always seemed fine. But yeah, he’s in his late 70s (maybe even early 80s now) so not gonna get better.
