Should the police have released the 71 year old driver who hit the people walking outside the wedding party in

He should be tried for vehicular manslaughter. I don't care about the age.

A: I would expect that since the driver was 71, but still driving, his driving privileges should be permanently taken away at the very least, and he should be ordered to make some kind of restitution through his insurance and sale of all his personal property to repay the victims. Jail time as well or made to live in an elderly facility to get him/her off the road, after all, simply paying restitution isn't going to bring back the lives of those who died. If the driver didn't have his headlights on, then the poorly lit conditions should not apply. How fast was the driver going, anyway? Older people should have to have a medical release if they want to drive, just as people with other medical conditions have to.

B: My grandfather stopped driving when he realized that he was no longer a good driver, so I have on answer for that.

I don't think they should've. I know this happened before in California a few years ago. It seems as though accidents with seniors are becoming more and more a common place thing these days.

Oh now I suppose all old people will have their driving rights taken away......lets don't forget, columbine wasn't done by 70 year olds...

no way.
