Plane & car collide NTSB prilim

Point missed entirely.

If the last medical was in 1997, and there is no reason to not take a
medical other than the fear of failure, do you imagine the person's health
has improved in those 11 years?

Some people stop flying for financial reasons.. kids growing up, what ever..
And in the process they decide it is not worth keeping the medical up if
they cannot afford to fly.
and then find a way to get back into it..

Dunno. Why does anyone ever do a buzz job? This could easily just be someone
trying to buzz traffic.

So I take it that your point is... that he had to at least hold a valid
drivers license to fly the LSA.

I see that you did not bother to read the regs. Yes, you figured out one
point, you need a valid driver's license, but missed the most important one:
Even with a valid driver's license, you still can't fly an LSA with a known
medical condition that makes it unsafe for you to fly.

There is a third point that makes your original post wrong: What is it?

Any Pilot of Any Rating level can fly a LSA without a valid medical as long
as he has not applied for and been denied a medical.

No so. 61.23(c)(1), 61.23(c)(2)(i), and especially 61.23(c)(2)(iv).

This does not mean, however, that a condition that would preclude an
automatic issuance of a third-class medical automatically makes it unsafe
for you to fly, and therefore a violation to fly as a sport pilot.
