There comes a time when you can't stand by with a clear conscience, in the full knowledge that you are facilitating a progressively dangerous driver.ollie989898 said:
It may be less of a blow to their self-esteem if they decide to give up driving voluntarily rather than be stopped by a doctor. No adult deserves to be told by another what they can or cannot do.
You have a responsibility to ensure everyone’s health and safety and protect them from your aged parents. That includes from themselves. There comes a point where not only physical ability is impaired but also their judgement and if they don’t recognise that they are not fit to drive for themselves, someone must take responsibility on thei behalf and take their means of self drive transport away from them. I’m afraid it is true that some people regress into a second childhood. Some sooner. Some later. It has to be faced.They won't give up driving, it makes a joke that a 84 year old who needs 2 sticks to walk can renew their license without any form of medical, just any eye test and unfortunately his eyesight is fantastic for someone of his age ! It's taken us 5 years to get him to stop driving the forklift, he stopped driving that when he simply couldn't climb into it anymore. It is a very difficult subject and I could tell you loads of story's about near misses !

It's a conversation that I'll reluctantly be having with a family member the day after they turn 80, in a months time, as there has been mentions from the community of some recent 'incidents'.
The replacement electric buggy is going down a treat despite the looks of disgust when it first arrived.
