Where I live now and most places I've lived, this is the really scary part of being a vulnerable road user in most of the United States.

But Pike Place Market... between the cobbles, the high density, and the street convolutions to get to the pictured location, vehicular attack by senescence or willful malice would present a serious challenge. There are much softer targets and way "better" areas for confusing elderly drivers.
