Friends and family
Perhaps the best advice that I can offer older drivers is to simply be aware. Be aware of the limitations that age can bring. Be aware that ultimately, for those who live long enough, no one is immune from the effects of ageing.
Perhaps most important of all, be aware of the advice of friends and family if they raise concerns about your driving, they are the ones who love you the most and care about your well being. Giving up driving can be difficult and traumatic, but when the time comes you must make the decision for your safety, and for the younger people and children who share the roads. |
The rest of us?
Maybe we need to show a little more tolerance towards the ‘doddery old fool’ in front – after all it’s only a matter of time until you take on that role yourself ... That's if you are lucky enough to live that long ...
