Answer 3

I want to die in my sleep, like Grandpa, not screaming like the passengers in his car.

Answer 4

When I have trouble seeing, hearing, reflexes, etc. It&#039;s not a specific age. Everyone ages differently. I have arthritis in my right ankle, so when I&#039;m having a bad day, I don&#039;t drive. I&#039;m afraid if I have to stomp on the brake, I won&#039;t be able to do it.

We are trying to stop my mother-in-law from driving. She&#039;s 88, is blind in one eye &amp; has limited vision in the other. She also has poor hearing. She&#039;s had several accidents. Fortunately, no one has been hurt nor killed yet; only property damage. The police took her license after the last one, but she went to the DMV &amp; said she misplaced it, &amp; they gave her another one without checking &amp; she bought another car (she totaled the last one). I contacted the police &amp; DMV.

Answer 5

Only when they tell me I&#039;m no longer fit to drive.  Buses are evil - especially in Northern Ireland.

Answer 6

I don&#039;t think it&#039;s a question of age, it depends on what you can still do. Will you be able to still see? What about judgment, staying focused and drivig too fast or slow.Drive as long as you still are comfortable behind the wheel I&#039;d say.

Answer 7

Good question..this can really be a conflict in families.  i have seen it several times and as a result i can tell you i have a daughter and son in law and a church family and two public transportation sources..i plan to use common sense and i pray my ego doesn&#039;t get in the way..i want to do this aging thing with a little grace and style.  But deep down?  I&#039;ll really be ticked off!  I have watched people slowly lose their independance and it&#039;s frustrating  and can be painful..the key in all of this is a good support system. now i am spoiled and headstrong and like to get my way but this is god&#039;s world and i just live in it and i don&#039;t want to go out a big baby.  again..good question.

Answer 16

Before I turn 90, if I live that long.  My Mother quit when she was 89.  My Mother-in-law is 92 and she is still driving and you don&#039;t want to be on the road when she is.  

Answer 17

Answer 18

It pretty much looks like the rest of my days will be pretty much a solo trip. There is no one to help with things like trips to the doctor or to the grocery store and post office. Soooo.... I hope I can hang on to my mobility all the way. I know the odds of that are not good... but what do ya do.
