I think it depends on which state you live in. NJ is densely populated with 8 million people and we have an above average senior citizen population. This article was just from a quick google search but about once a month we have accidents where very old drivers drive through store fronts or back into buildings because they hit the gas instead of the brakes.
Elderly drivers crash into homes and store signs in same NJ town, same week
