I think people get tired while driving because there is really nothing to entertain them so they get bored and fall asleep.

Do people dream in comas?

I have researched this phenomena quite a bit though I do not practice medicine I believe it is still somewhat of a mystery. Some people dream and some do not. Alot of people can actually hear their surroundings while in the coma state which can be incorporated into their dream. One man had been in a coma for two months after a car accident and his wife inquired about the experience, he said his dreams were extremely lucid, like a parallel existence. In fact, he was heard by the staff to actual yell seemingly random things out, but when he came to they later deciphered that he was expressing himself in his 'dream' and as people talk in their sleep so did he. One of his comments was about a baseball player trade, while in his coma the tv in his room was on that announced the trade, this angered him and caused him to not only dream about his reactions but comment on the subject without being conscious of it.

Should seniors over the age of 80 be allowed to drive?

No, I disagree on that one, older people's reflections are slow and usually they tend to go under speed limit, possible causing accidents..... Another viewpoint, from someone who is older than 80, is that it is entirely an individual matter. Regularly scheduled tests of driving skill would be appropriate for people of all ages. In some states it is illegal to go too far under the speed limit, thereby blocking the free flow of traffic, even if you are a young, inexperienced driver who just wants to be cautious. But those of us, old or young, who sometimes go slightly under the speed limit, in the slow lanes, under some conditions, are aware that excessive speed kills, too. Accidents involving slow drivers may be caused equally as well by young hot-heads who tailgate, weave, and change lanes without signalling, letting road-rage contaminate their judgment.
