Hanging up the Car Keys

Jan has had her driver license like many in her age group since she was 15 – that is over 60 years of driving. I asked her what her first thoughts were if there came a time where she would need to give up driving. “She said she would shudder to think”

“My whole life would change if I couldn’t drive. I may become more reclusive. Many of my friends would be in the same boat. Being able to drive means that I can do, what I want, when I want to do it!” Lois has been exploring alternatives to driving and has been preparing for a while now.
