It's a tough one, Ken. I think everyone, PwP or not, has to constantly assess and evaluate the safety of their driving. Unfortunately, we've created a monster: a car-dependent way of life for which an aging population is ill suited. As a society, we are doing our best to ignore this. At least most PwPs I know are very conscious of their driving, and conscientious as well. What scares me more are the overconfident multitaskers of all ages—the ones who simultaneously eat breakfast, consult their GPS, apply makeup, and text their friends while driving.
