I’m an 80 year old woman who still drives but most towns take the elderly on buses to go grocery shopping and the “T’,here in Eastern MA, has a program called The Ride which will take an elderly person anyplace withinthe area for a very small fee.

I live in Central Massachusetts. We live in a small town with no public transportation, but I know that there is a group of older people who are carted to our local grocery store on a small bus once a week. I'm not sure from which town in this area they are located, though.

I have a friend who believes that anyone over the age of 75 or so should lose his or her license, which has resulted in a number of animated discussions between us.

Thank goodness you have a car and drive! I feel for people who must take public transportation. Is the “T” a more private or elderly only ride?
