[nas t eh]

My mother was not planning to stop driving and was pretty aggressive about anyone trying to stop her, but she scared herself once or twice and changed her mind. She was about to turn 90 when she figured it out and did not renew her licence. She is 93 now and drives a mobility scooter to the local grocery stores on nice days.

When she soften her stance and said maybe she would give up her car, she tried Taxis a few times and it went well. When she told me to find someone to buy the car I didn’t waste any time, in case she changed her mind. About a month after all this she started having regrets, but the scooter has helped and she knows she is not really able, but she stilll misses driving.

Hopefully you Mom figures it out very soon.

P.S. I just remembered, My Mom had a close friend who gave up his licence about a year or two before her and told her a couple of times he didn’t miss driving half as much and he thought he would. His influence helped a lot. Is there someone her age who could council her?
