An unusual traffic ticket was issued to an 82-year-old woman in California for crossing the street too slowly. The police officer, arriving on a motorcycle, cited her for obstructing traffic with a $114 fine.
The incident has led to public outcry, prompting local officials to consider ways to assist seniors in crossing streets without penalties. Unfortunately, solutions like longer walk signs seem far off.
In response, seniors are exploring creative ways to speed up their pace. Electric wheelchairs have always been available, but many seniors hesitate to use them until faced with mishaps from trying alternatives like roller skates.
Bicycles are seeing a rise in sales, especially around retirement communities. Those with more agile partners are even considering options like little red wagons or, in rural areas, wheelbarrows.
Seniors are turning to every conceivable method to expedite their journeys, often relying on wheels for help. While these solutions work well in warm weather, winter poses a challenge. Some adventurous folks are considering skis or ice skates for snowy conditions.
Thankfully, the original ticket recipient didn’t receive points against her record. Too many, and she might worry about losing her "walking license."
