Getting my Dad’s license taken away was harder than any other change in his last years. He broke his wrist in a fall at a restaurant and we were given the keys after he went to the hospital. After the rwo weeks that the injury kept him sidelined, we went to the DMV, I think, and not the police. Here in Florida, if the request to remove a license comes from a family member or other person (as opposed to law enforcement or medical professional), a medical appointment needs to be occur, which we he got at the VA. It was apparent to them that he should not be driving so he never got the license back. Between then and when I retired, I took him to his favorite restaurant on the way to work and arranged for someone to bring him home a couple of hours later.
Just had a recent tragedy in our community. A retired state forest service officer and marine was getting up in age. (Not sure of his medical issues). His children were attempting to convince him into senior living facility. He walked outside and killed himself. Just awful.
