Okay, I want to rant a bit. First, I teach driver safety classes that focus on senior drivers. There is a time to quit driving and there are other options for getting around. One could use public transportation or sell the car and use that money, plus the savings on gas, insurance, maintenance, etc. to hire a ride. Many senior living communities offer a service that takes the residents to and from a shopping center. One can share a taxi ride with several other residents to reduce the cost.
Please, if you are having severe problems with your vision or reaction time, see a medical professional. Ask for advice. Also, drivers over 50 years old usually qualify for a 5% discount on auto insurance for three years, if they take the AARP Driver Safety class. Check with your insurance company to verify your discount
