RICHMOND HILL — A young child died after an SUV smashed through the window of a daycare north of Toronto shortly before pickup time on Wednesday afternoon.

Every time I read this my heart breaks for the families. Of course the driver was in his seventies. Of course the police will never question if he took meds forbidding him to operate heavy machinery.

Edit: took it down. Did not see someone fast faster than I I

        From your link “Except for drivers 80 years and older, per mile driven, young drivers are more involved in fatal crashes than older drivers.” and the stat “5.4 for drivers 80+”.

        Those stats also was about drivers involved in a fatal crash. It doesn’t mention if the driver killed themselves or a pedestrian.

            I think you got that backwards. My theory which I have no stats for is that young drivers are more likely to kill themselves and older drivers are more likely to kill pedestrians and crash into buildings.
