In California family is permitted to anonymously report a member who is at risk of driving. I turned my dad in when he refused to give up driving while obviously suffering from the beginning of dementia. He would get lost, especially at night, and drive the wrong way. He was so stubborn he would wet himself rather than pull over and ask for directions or even call his cell phone for assist. I'd get calls from stores that were closing asking if I could come get him because he was lost and didn't know how to get home. Etc...
Anyways, the DMV sent him a letter and forms that it was time for him to take a road test and that if he didn't come in, his license was cancelled. Dad didn't take it well. He said screw them, he'd drive anyways. Didn't care if he had a legal license or not. So I disabled his car. I posted a note under the hood as well as to why. Dad called the AAA for a start assist. The person saw the note and called my number I left on it. I told him to tow it to my place. Dad was none the wiser; thinking the guy was towing to a repair shop. I told Dad that I would drive him when ever or where ever he needed. Again, not happy but also not aware I'm being the bad guy here. He would have disowned me had he figured this out. Every time we got in my car he would rant about how his car was stolen. He forgot it was towed. I went along. One day I get a call from a dealership. Dad's there wanting to buy a car. However, his driver license comes back invalid so they won't let him. He's throwing a fit of course, so I came down and picked him up. He insisted on going to the DMV for his test to get his license back so I took him. I told the DMV tester that if he doesn't already know Jesus, he maybe should get right with the Lord before taking this road test. It was enough for the guy to fail Dad in the parking lot. Ha!
I hated to do this to Dad, but would have hated more to have him or innocents hurt or worse because I didn't step up and do what needed to be done.
