105-year-old woman renews drivers license

Edythe Kirchmaier took her first driving test. Last week, she passed her most recent road test at the age of 105.

The California great-grandmother, who has never had so much as a parking ticket, said the test was a snap -- and she never even thought about turning in her card and leaving the driving to someone else.

"I just couldn't imagine myself without a car," Kirchmaier told FoxNews.com. "It just didn't feel very good."
She started out driving on the streets of Chicago in a Model A Ford Coupe back in 1927 while attending graduate school. That was long before the days of traffic jams and $4-per-gallon gas, and Kirchmaier said plenty of other things have changed, too.

    Wow! I couldn’t imagine being able to live that long, much less still be able drive. On top of that, she has an amazingly clean driving record. I think we need more people like her on the road. Good for Edythe!

    Hmm it looks like your website ate my first comment (it was extremely long) so I guess
    I'll just sum it up what I submitted and say, I'm thoroughly enjoying
    your blog. I too am an aspiring blog writer but I'm still new to the whole thing. Do you have any suggestions for rookie blog writers? I'd definitely appreciate
    it.
