If your grandmother was nearly killed making a left hand turn - that is her fault not the traffic's that she was pulling out into. Old people making left hand turns into traffic kill far more people than speeders. The person making the left into traffic is responsible for doing so safely. Sounds like grandma didn't. She shouldn't have been cutting it so close that a 15 mph delta could make the difference between life and death.

The web comic Sluggy Freelance ( http://www.sluggy.com/ ) has had an ongoing character for years that developed all sorts of inflatable tech. I was halfway expecting to see the name Dr. Schlock in the article.
