Mrs Green was eighty, but she had a small car, and she always drove to the shops on Saturday and bought her food.She didn’t drive fast because she was old, but she drove well and never hit anything.
Sometimes her grandchildren said to her, “Please don’t drive your car, grandmother.We can take you to the shops.”
But she always said, “No, I like driving.I’ve been driving it for fifty years, and I’m not going to stop driving.”
last Saturday she stopped her car at some traffic lights because they were red and then it did not start again.The lights were green, then yellow, then red, then green again, but her car didn’t start.
“What am I going to do now?” she said.
At this time a policeman came and said to her kindly, “Good morning.Don’t you like any of our colours today?”
