I also have a blue tag and handicapped plates and I am pretty old. I consider my self a good driver. In fact I have never had a ticket in the last forty years, how many of you young people can say that? I live a few miles from a freeway here in California where 8 teenagers were killed racing in two separate accidents within two weeks last year. As Sammi has said the blue tag is for people who have trouble walking, so that one can park close to do the same things that healthy people can do.

It doesn't matter whether you are young or old, it is how you drive. I have a cell phone but I don't use it when I'm driving, I don't look in the mirror to put makeup on because I'm late for work, I don't sip coffee while I'm driving, I don't light up a cigarette, I don't smoke, I don't yell at my kids while I'm driving, I have my dogs strapped in seat-belts in the back seat, I concentrate on my driving and I wish a lot of you who complain about old people would do the same, just remember you will be old one day too and I hope you can drive as well as I do right now, lol.
