Woman Banned From Driving Until The Year 3000

Posted by samzenpus on from the nobody-with-a-good-car-needs-to-be-justified dept.

84-year-old Luba Relic has been banned from driving for the next 1000 years. Her license had been suspended by the RTA for "medical reasons," a court heard. But she crashed into a Honda Civic outside a St Vincent De Paul shop in Oxford Rd, Brookvale in September. Luba is no stranger to the court system. She has been to court with her neighbors 78 times and was charged this time with negligent driving, driving without a license and failing to give particulars. Will someone please get Luba a copy of Burnout, I think she'd be a natural.

    Am I the only one that finds it hilarious that her last name is "Relic"?

      Add to this that her first name would translate roughly as "sweetheart" in my language (Slovene).

    And if she's caught driving again, the judge will make her sleep underground for 1000 years in a small box, a la Demolition Man and every other movie like it, just so that she can see her one true love again, the automobile. Maybe in 1000 years GM can make a car profitable.

      Highly doubtful! But maybe in 1000 years, we'll have computers that can run Crysis!

    (insert scarcasim into title) but really if you have ever read the darwin awards you can easily see the problems of letting EXTREMELY old people drive. not to mention that people are getting mcuh older now and we start forgeting things at like 75
