I just turned 77 this month. I have noticed little things in my driving which suggests lack of attention. I also find that the rest of the traffic is so much faster than me. No real physical problems that would interfere with driving, but I have been uncomfortable driving the past year.
My decision is made easier by the fact that I do not like to drive. I should have born a millionaire and been chauffeur driven everywhere I wanted to go. I would prefer that.
I have my motor home up for sale, with a good prospect coming next week. I will miss the freedom that comes with a motor home, but the worry about the possibility of an accident that could injure both of us is always on my mind.
I will limit my driving to a weekly trip to Walmart for the next year, then put my other vehicle up for sale and stop driving.
Better to stop driving then to try to deceive ourselves that our skills are nearly as good as they have ever been.
