If she needs to go somewhere, we take her or she arranges transportation.
I wonder how many of these "medical issues", or symptoms, had previously happened with these people that caused the accidents before now, and if they did have previous issues/symptoms, WHY THEY KEPT DRIVING?
And before you start bashing on maybe the cart is the only way they can get around, there are transportation services in TV that can take them anywhere they want to go.  Let it begin.......

I remember my father gave up driving on his own but my mother needed some convincing. After I asked her about how she would feel if she hit a child she gave up driving.
