Henry just made the difficult decision to give up his keys. He knows it was the right thing to do, but he’s worried about having to rely on loved ones for rides from here on out, especially given the fact that his car had been specifically designed to accommodate his wheelchair. The AAAPP was able to connect Henry to some free and low cost local resources, helping to ease Henry’s transition into no longer driving.

Are you a caregiver of a senior who thinks it may be time to discuss no longer driving? The National Highway Transportation Safety Administration provides useful information on how to discuss and influence older drivers.
