Angry Old Man in Vanity-Plated Subaru
Idiocy Meter
Asshole Meter
One major problem I have with bad senior citizen drivers is that people just don’t die anymore. Here me out; I’m not being morbid. We see people in their 80′s, 90′s+ much more frequently these days thanks to modern medicine. Unfortunately, as a result many of our golden-aged loved one are still driving when they’ve ceased to demonstrate the skills and dexterity of being a safe driver years ago. Now compound these problems with someone who has anger management issues, and you have an accident waiting to happen. By the looks of him, this guy driving this Subaru recently crossed the senior citizen mark. Perhaps the idea of discounted movie tickets and a social security check is less than appealing for this jackhole who was fiercely raging on La Brea. Do you see how closely he’s tailgating the car in front of him? That’s not a safe distance even when you’re slowing down for a red light. Several times, his lead foot shot his vanity-plated shizmobile past me (think of a word that could mean “party”, “job”, or “role”), only to be foiled by a red light or a driver that had the nerve to travel along with the speed of traffic. This heart attack waiting to happen was waving his arms and honking his horn in frustration with…wait for it…12 o’clock traffic. Oooh…such congestion! He’s exactly what this town needs, an angry old man, with a body that will slowly fail him, driving behind the wheel for the next 30 years.
