A driving test can't stop this 105-year-old woman

105-year-old Edythe Kirchmaier recently renewed her California drivers license (Facebook)There apparently isn?t much that can slow down Edythe Kirchmaier. The 105-year-old California resident made headlines on Monday when she passed her driving test ? continuing 86 years without a blemish on her driving record and maintaining her status as the state's oldest living driver.

"I just couldn't imagine myself without a car," Kirchmaier told FoxNews.com. "It just didn't feel very good."

And that?s far from the only bit of notoriety to crop up recently in Kirchmaier?s life. Facebook has declared her its most senior user, she's the University of Chicago's oldest living former student, last week she appeared on The Ellen Degeneres Show to celebrate her birthday and she has been a volunteer with the Direct Relief International (DRI) organization for 40 years.

Kirchmaier reportedly drives herself to DRI each week, where she leads a team of volunteers.

"I think I?m a pretty good driver," Kirchmaier told Fox. "I feel safe about getting my driver's license renewed because I?ve never had an accident."
