A two-car crash in Gilbert Thursday morning sent a 78-year-old man to the hospital.

The collision occurred at the intersection of Higley Road and the entrance to Banner Gateway Hospital just before 10:30 a.m., authorities said.

A car exiting the hospital smashed into the side of another car.

The injured man did not suffer life-threatening injuries. He was flown to Scottsdale Osborn hospital for chest pains.

    Must have been really well-heeled to get that type of treatment!
    Sounds like a real door-knob to me.

    Old people should NOT be driving.

    You people are not only cruel, but uninformed. If either of you have ever been to Gilbert (particularly near Higley rd where this accident had occured), you would realize that it is a dangerous area and people in Gilbert and Mesa and Chandler drive like maniacs in their MASSIVE trucks. There are so many drunks on the road and people in gigantor trucks driving balls out that it is likely that it wasn’t the old guys fault. How agist of you. Alot of old people are awesome drivers and are muscled off the road by people like you who use their truck-nuts to replace the real thing they wish they had.

    Poor guy. I wish him well and hope the gas prices knock you numbskulls off the road with your 22″ gas-guzzling rims.
