The last time my grandma drove, she was coming to our house ( 2 miles) for dinner and was late. No cell phones back then but eventually she showed up.
She told us she was pulled over for speeding. We looked at her ticket, was driving 76MPH in a 35MPH zone. She had a 94 Caviler, unsure how she could even have got it that fast. Well, that was the last time we let her drive, my brother ended up with her car and grandma duty.
She also got her ticket dismissed, the police officer decided he wasn't going to show and deal with her when she for some reason fought it.
My first car was a 94 cavalier…let’s just say it was not hard to get them going well over 100mph. The trickiest part was keeping it on the road because of the shaking. I did once (barely) outrun a tornado in it, though.
Not my first car but was my brother's and I drove it from San Diego to Houston when he got deployed in 2004. The radiator blew up just outside of Tucson and I had to spend three days there while it got fixed. Luckily I had friends at the University of Arizona and could sleep on their floor. Also could only afford to buy one used tape. So I listened to Dark Side of the Moon on repeat from Tucson to Houston
