Marjorie, I was going to say something similar about how most of the drivers in South Florida drive like some of the WORST case stories I have heard from PWP's on here, but I was afraid I would scare away too many tourists..then I realized, it is often the tourists who drive that way when they are here! I know that giving up driving for most folks, regardless of age or health, is a very hard thing to do. I drive about 600 miles a week for business, and I am relieved when Barbara does the weekend driving and I don't have to, but I would not want anyone to tell me I can not drive! My mom was saying that for what it costs to own and insure a car these days, you could take a lot of taxi rides and still be dollars ahead, but she lives in Delray, close to the stores and medical facilities , meanwhile she is a safe driver, and very careful. Dad , our PWP, is too incapacitated to drive, so mom is the designated driver by default. I guess our bad drivers in Florida are just the price we pay for the beautiful weather and scenery, I intend to stay here until my new mortgage is paid in 2027, or I expire, whichever comes first!
