To be honest, I have no respect for such a person, or better 82 years old=
=20
fart who brought others in danger with his driving. Thankfully no other=20
person was invoved and injured.

Its very common all over in central Europe to have these ditches, trees or=
=20
even walls along country roads. That is how we love it.

For big money you can book in to take part in one of these leasure ra=C4=BA=
lys,=20
where you get all accomodation organised, only you have to come from a to b=
=20
along. these rallys are mainly booked from those mainly elderly people who=
=20
do not know what to do otherwise with their money, even they are completely=
=20
overextended by driving an old classic car.

One should be wise enough to give up driving, when you are no more capable=
=20
to drive.

I am only sorry about the wrecked Austin-Healey.

Most of them weren't "open" ditches--they were filled with rocks. =20

I fondly recall the time we missed a left-hander, went off the road,=20
somehow hurtled OVER the ditch and landed in a tree in a fellow's front=20
yard.  As I remember it he stood there rather stunned while we cleared the=
=20
branches out of the wheel openings, then hopped into the car and took off=
=20
without much conversation.
