TEN KILOMETERS IN THE WRONG DIRECTION | And she caused TWO separate accidents. I heard on the news that she was driving 100km/h in the wrong direction! Wouldn't common sense tell you to get the fuck off the road?!

We need a motivational poster for this one 
BTW, I saw the pile-up when heading back from Seattle yesternight at 12am. It was still nasty. Trucks and police everywhere on the southbound lane. Cars were strewn all over the side of the highway.

Old people need to stop driving if they can't handle it.
Freaking hell.

I've seen this before on Hwy 91. It was an elderly woman, as was the case here. She didn't seem to know she was going the wrong way at all. Just drove normally and was actually staring as other drivers as she approached...like everyone else was wrong.

Some old dood just "pulled a Hwy99" this morning near where I live (King Ed and McDonald) right when I was explaining this incident to my friend!, going "up" the hill when everyone else was going down. Good thing he came to his senses after the car in front of me and I both honked him.
Easiest way to catch everyone? Force everyone to redo a test each time your license gets renewed. Since you gotta come in anyways, why not spend 1h doing a test?

More like a yearly exam.
When you get old your senses can deteriorate real quickly.
