Parents' Driving Worries Baby Boomers, But No One Wants to Talk About It

One thing I do not understand is why any State would renew a driver's license for someone who is 90 years old via the mail !. My uncle who should not be driving renewed his license at 90 years old via the mail. He has a club foot he walks with a walker he recently developed gout in his right wrist and he thinks he can drive. The registry gave him a license for the next 5 years. So who am I to say he can't drive. My grandmother is 93 she drives and she is fine I am very confident in her driving. She does not drive at night and she does not go far. But, my uncle should not be driving. We can't get his doctor to do anything as we do not have medical proxy. He has been in 3 accidents in the last year and each time he talks his way out of it. In fact his insurance premiums have gone down ! Unbelievable.
