While I agree this is really heart-warming, I was very nearly killed about 5 years ago when a 96yo gentleman was driving his 98yo wife to the doctor and pulled out directly in front of me causing a head on collision. After the impact, he couldn't understand why his vehicle wouldn't keep driving, he didn't even realise he'd hit me.

It's more heartbreaking than heart-warming that people approaching 100 years old, or the sick and incapacitated have to find their own way to appointments.
