I understand where Vuuxo Vuuxo is coming from, though. It takes roughly 9-12 seconds for that, roughly, year model of Ford Explorer (looks like mid trim). Not only that, but the amount of distance needed to get to that speed, and the quite obvious red light that can be seen for quite a distance beforehand - they can say "Oh, she just confused the brake" all they want, but she clearly wasnt paying attention to the road ahead. Just too many factors working against her for it to be a mistaken pedal. REGARDLESS - they should have taken her license for either infraction at that age. I know how awful it is to be without a license because of my own DUI fuckup - but at 80+ years old, you shouldnt be in a bind where your entire life crumbles if you dont have a license.

To go from say 35 to 95 is a 60mph increase that would take 6 to 10 seconds of hard acceleration and HUNDREDS of feet of clear road. The more realistic picture is she mistook the gas for brake and hit them doing roughly 50 to 55. Even that's being generous.
I believe the speed limit should be the age of the driver. So maybe she did too and was driving 83 mph.
