I took my mom down to renew her drivers license. Its 3 yrs. past. Anyways, she had to have her doctor sign her off that she fine. Its not safe on the road if she gets her drivers license back. What should I do?
Apparently the DMV could see she has limitations. I doubt if her MD will certify her ability to drive. You could encourage him not to. Even if he did, could she pass a written test and road test?
Sodonewith, that is what happened to my youngest sister - killed by a driver who should not have been on the road. Please everyone, do whatever it takes.
What about contacting her ins. Co. And telling them she can be a danger on the road....heaven forbid do they want a law suit if she causes a tragic accident?.,,if they drop her that might be on her record and other co. May refuse to insure her
I'm not sure why you took her to renew her license if she's that unsafe behind the wheel. Be that as it may, do everything in your power to keep her off the road, even if it means putting a Club on her steering wheel. Meanwhile, talk to her doctor and express your concerns.
Dorothyann, keep on doing whatever you can to get her license taken away, and her car too. I think many of know exactly how difficult this is, and how impossible our parent(s) can be. Your doctor should be able to help you. You can even blame the doctor if necessary, lol. I am in the final (I hope) stages of doing this for my mother. SO stressful, SO difficult. I still haven't gotten rid of her car, but hope to in the next month.
Of course it's not nice to have to listen to your mom demand over and over to be taken to get her license renewed. What's far worse is having your mom kill somebody with her car because you weren't firm enough about not letting her drive. Don't think that couldn't happen. Sometimes you have to toughen up and just say no.
Disable the car, there is a part that has something to do with the ignition,take it out, tell her you will get the car repaired, just don't get around to it but be prepared to be her chauffeur,if she wrecks and hurts someone she will get her b*tt sued off especially if she hurts a child.
Thank you for all your input?That's very helpfulfor me to deal with this? And why I took her down to get it renewed..u guys don't know my mom..That's all i heard for weeks..And its not nice..
