Describe your reaction to the video. What should be the 76-year-old woman's punishment? What's the dumbest thing you've ever done behind the wheel (if you drive)? What's the dumbest thing you've seen someone else do behind the wheel?

What in the world is this lady retarted? I definately think she should get her license taken from her. Those poor people that was horrible to watch. The dumbest thing I ever did driving was getting stuck in a ditch before school and officer Turner knew about it before I even got here. He came and pulled me out of class to joke on me. Not funny. The dumbest thing I have seen someone else do is my mom pulling out of the mall and she hit the car beside her knocking her own hubb cap off. It was pretty hillarious and then she debated on whether to give the car her insurance information cause she didnt want anyone to take it. There was no damage to the other car.

Wow...I'm surprised no ones dead. I don't what her punishment should be. Just because alcohol wasn't involved doesn't mean something else wasn't. I can't see anyone just ramming their car into a store like that and not being under some sort of influence. My dumbest moment in a car was when I pushed on the gas instead of the breaks when I wanted to stop and almost got hit from another car. My dad takes the cake though, he got on the wrong road so to get on the one he wanted he drove off the road, down a hill and on to the road he wanted. That was kind of scary sense I was in the car with him.

I believe that her license should be takin away. I honestly believe that alot of older people should be giving a test to see if there capable of driving a car. Because it is alot more possible for an older driver to have a medical issue and put other peoples lives at risk. I have seen so many stupid things behind the wheel and done so many stupid things its really hard to pick one. well I saw someone pass a cop than flip them off.. I thought that was pretty dumb.
I was shocked and sort of amazed by this video. I think the woman should be punished with revocation of her driver's license. It's a good thing that no one got hurt. I haven't done anything dumb behind the wheel. The dumbest thing I've seen someone do behind the wheel is texting.

I was shocked when I saw the video and I think the women should get manslaughter or something for her punishment. The dumbest thing I've done driving was yesterday I was pointing to some sign and talking about it and meanwhile I'm heading into oncoming 258 traffic.
I can’t say that she’s too old to have her license because then they could state that were too young to have ours. I do know though that once you hit age 65 you should have a yearly driving exam because when you’re elderly just like when your young, your careless and everybody makes mistakes. The think that bugs me is that she only got a careless driving ticket, that’s crazy. Just because she’s elderly doesn’t mean she shouldn’t get a worse ticket especially because she hurt so many people. Children have accident mistake accidents and get reckless driving tickets and that’s all she gets for driving her whole life. I think that’s crazy and the cops need to give her fair punishment.

I didn't expect the crash to be so severe, especially not so forceful as to destroy half of a grocery store and throw about 10 people around. The woman should obviously have her liscense taken away. I'm not sure if it would make anyone feel better to put the woman in jail or make her pay for hospital bills or anything, especially because she probably only has an income from medicare. The dumbest thing I've done behind the wheel was take off a pull-over hoodie. The dumbest thing I've witnessed was watching my uncle read a book.
I was shocked. She should go to jail, thats what her punishment should be. Honestly I can't answer that question because I don't drive yet. I seen a grown man get under the wheel, after he just got finish drinking a lot of beers. Pretty much, that's it.

I know I shouldn't be laughing at this, but I am. I think she should pay for the damages of all things. One time, my brother was following me and I had to do a right turn. I literally took my time to make that right turn. He nearly crashed into me. He never followed me so close again. It was hilarious.
Now Mrs. Bryant KNOWS what dumb thing I saw someone do behind the wheel. -___o

My reaction to the video is wow,it really sad.The 76-year-old woman's punishment should be that she cant drive anymore for the rest of her life.I have never really done anything dumb behind the wheel.I haven't because driving is serious and scary.The dumbest thing I have seen someone else do behind the wheel is texting!!!!
I think this old lady should really get her license taken away. All those innocent people hurt. Another reason is maybe she is told old to drive and couldn't see. The dumbest thing I ever seen is my sister trying to pull into the highway in front of a big truck almost got all of us killed! When she should have waited til the truck pass.(never riding with her again)
This video is shocking. I think the woman should have her license taken away. I just started driving. I've only had my learners for about a month. However, i have witnessed my sister total two cars. I try to learn from her mistakes and make better decisions than she did.
I think this is crazy and funny at the same time. She should get her license taken away because that could've killed anyone. Luckily no one died. The dumbest thing I've seen someone do is drive on the wrong side of the rode.
Dang, that lady is crazy. Her punishment should be big because that's straight up stupid. The dumbest thing I have done while driving is this morning I was talking to my mom on the way to school and I almost hit a tree. Luckily I swerved out of the way before we crashed but it freaked me and my mom out a little. The lady in the video is probably the dumbest thing I have ever seen someone do while driving.
I'm not sure if she should drive. I think he license should be taken. I haven't done anything stupid. This kid drove with 2 feet out the window.
I think that it's really sad. We don't know all of the facts of the situation so we can't exactly judge what her punishment should be. She may have been in bad health or her eyesight may have caused it because of her old age. I know of several things that people do behind the wheel that are very dumb but I know I have done some too. Eating and driving or putting on makeup while you drive are just two of the dumb things.
That's ridiculous. What would make her do that? She should definitely be punished for that by taking her license. The dumbest thing I've seen someone do behind the wheel is do a full 360 in the middle of a highway, however they didn't hit anyone. I have no clue how they got so lucky not to hit anyone else or stay on the road. -Josh Cutchins
There is no excuse for something like this to happen. She should be punished severely. I have seen people drive down the wrong side of the highway(Dylan)! ZACH CAHALAN
She shouldn't ever drive. I haven't done anything stupid. I've seen somebody turn into a parking lot and stop when they turn in.

That this lady is crazy! I think she should get her license taken away. She is old anyways so she should at least not drive anymore. I don't drive so I haven't done anything dumb behind the wheel. I was riding with this girl, she is like my sister, she was just talking and singing and looking everywhere and texting while driving and she wasn't watching what she was doing. So she was starting to go over to the side of the road a little. Then the car went over to the rocks a little, then when the car went over and she heard the rocks, she started to pay attention more and stuff.
I think for sure her liscense should be taken and depending on the reason behind it if she should to jail. Driving with their knees or I've seen people drive with their feet out the window.

I am worried, because I have relatives that live in Florida. Its sad what happened to the 3 month old baby. The 76-year-old be charged for reckless driving. When someone was speeding in the back roads of Windsor with ice on the road.
-Travis Legate
Old people should not drive. I think it's funny how she keep on driving after she drove in the store. Take that old ladys licenses. Can't say the dumbest thing I've ever done, that would be bad.
Chris Stepp
Her licenses should be tooking. One time I saw some pass somebody on 460 they went over the double lines and passed them.
Yes. If u don't have a excuse for driving like that dangerously without something being wrong with you. The dumbest thing I've ever seen someone do behind the wheel was doing a donnut in a the middle of the intersection of a road.
-Amber Furman
I think she should go to jail! I pay a lot of attention when I'm driving. The dumbest thing I have done while driving is texting at a stop light but it was one time and I won't do it again. I have seen people drink alcohol, text, run red lights, run stop signs. The dumbest to me is drinking and driving. I think once people get to a certain age they should have to do tests every year.
This reminds me of the movie Madea's Big Happy Family, when Madea drove threw the window at a fast food restaurant because the lady taking the order was acting ghetto. The 76 year old woman should defiantly have a license taking away and have here eye sight checked. The dumbest thing that I have ever done was speed up on a turn because there was a lot of traffic and I was trying to get to my destination quickly. The dumbest thing I have ever seen someone else do behind the wheel is race on my street. My street is very narrow and sharp turns so that was very stupid. The man ended up in the ditch and Jack Jr. had to come and get him out.
This is crazy!! I think this lady just needs her license taken away from her. The dumbest thing I've ever done was look into my rear view mirror to long and thats how I got into my head on collision. The stupidest thing I've ever seen was a girl driving down the road putting makeup on and smoking.
I can't believe this happen. The 76 year old woman's punishment should have be taken away from her and never given back. I think when people get a certain age, their license should be suspended for ever. Believe it or not I never done anything behind the wheel. I heard that someone drive with their feet out the window.
This is very sad , i think that there should me an age limit on old people being able to drive . I would be scarred for life if i saw something like that .

What in the world! Why i the world does this 76-year old have a license anymore?! I hope those people are alright! Especially that poor three month old! There are so many things that should be done for her punishment.
For one, her license needs to be taken away from her. If she can cause that much damage from driving, then she shouldn't be able to drive. She would most likely cause another accident like this. Would you rather have someone else drive for her or have this woman cause thousands of dollars in damage?
I do believe that the stupidest thing I've seen was actually last week during spring break. My mom, sister, brother, and I were in Franklin about to go to Burger King because the subway across the street was way too busy. So our light was green and we were heading straight to the Burger King when this woman in a MINI VAN sped through her RED LIGHT and almost crashed into us. We were in our 450 truck too. So, if anything, that woman would've suffered more damage than us. But that's not the point, is it?
She should be locked up because if not then every other person over 70 that is not intoxicated will probably try to run into buildings. The dumbest thing I have ever done was text and honestly I don't do it often and I know I need to stop doing it in general. I seen my brother swerve back an forth across the rode calling it Texas tipping.
HOLY CRAP, imagine your just minding your own business in a store and then out of nowhere a car flies in and hits you, talk about a bad day. I really don’t have enough information on what actually happened to say what the 76-year-old woman's punishment should be. I have yet to do something I would call “dumb” behind the wheel, well besides so focused on the speedometer that I wasn’t paying attention to what I was doing. Anyway the dumbest thing I’ve seen someone else do behind the wheel is try to change clothes while on the highway.
