You're never too old to learn something new.

That is what we always hear, and it must have been the mentality of a 53 year-old Boston woman who decided to finally get her driver's license recently.
According to WCVB via the Melrose Police Department, police say the woman recently smashed through 8 headstones at a Massachusetts cemetery while practicing for her driver's license.
She recently got her learner's permit, so on Saturday she went to practice for the big test. The idea with the cemetery was, at least she can't kill anyone. A relative went along for the ride while offering up their Range Rover to practice in. She lost control, according to the report, and took out 8 headstones while destroying the front-end of the car.
Nobody in the family has a Mercury Marquis she could practice in? Bad, old cars (like mine) are tailor made for these big days. Range Rovers and headstones are not cheap. That is why we have the Mercury model, to smash into things.
When I read the first few words, I was convinced this story was coming out of Danbury. Allow me to be critical of my own environment when I say the Hat City has the worst drivers I've ever seen.
I love this city like it's one of my children, but I'm convinced that they handout Driver's licenses in Cracker Jack boxes here. In all my years, I've never seen more aggressive and negligent driving than what I've encountered since moving to Downtown Danbury. Good luck out there, it's a scene man.
P.S. The driver and the passenger of the wreck were OK.
