        There should definitely be driving restrictions on people over a certain age or more intensive and regular testing

        Never understand how someone can drive on the wrong side of the road, especially at that speed. Watching the dashcam footage circling the net its absolutely clear the caravan driver is on the wrong side of the road.... Awful stupid incident that could easily have been avoided 😔

        This is what happens when people in their 80s are at the wheel.

        How does this happen? How do you go the wrong way down a motorway? And if somehow you do why would you continue driving the wrong way? Really bizarre.

        Time to start making pensioners retake their driving test. In 2015 a woman in her 90’s drove the wrong way up the A47 in Peterborough, she died and seriously injured another. That was around the same time a pensioner drove the wrong way up the M1 and killed a young father. Awful.

        If I had the dash cam footage I would of still posted the whole video online. The public need to know about them maniacs on our roads. Drivers pay enough to be on the road never mind putting up with selfish scum bags putting other road users in danger
