Mom is 88 and only drives during daylight. Mostly grocery runs around noon. Recognizes night vision is a problem so won't drive after dark. Knows her limitations.
Dad will be 90 this year and his driving is perfect. He's a former vietnam veteran dustoff pilot, instrument rated, so his 'scan' has him at an advantage. He's 15 seconds ahead of the cars in front of him. And he's a leadfoot - as if his time on earth is limited... We recently alternated driving on a 22hr nonstop to his brother's funeral and he only got pulled over once for speeding - but only a warning with his purple heart plates.
All of you know wether you should still be driving. Be honest. There is uber now and in 10 years you'll own a fully automated grocery getter.
