Oh I agree it is hard to face that you are getting old and there are things you should no longer do. I think its human nature. But when it comes to cars people need to face it before they kill someone. When I get to the age I shouldn't be driving I hope my family says something to me. By then ill be more then happy to let people drive me around.I had to go back and re-read . . .
With any luck, age brings with it the opportunity to trade inexperience for experience and "youthful over-exuberance" for a semblance of wisdom. I dare suggest that a majority of the incidents following car shows and similar meets belong to the younger participants (or onlookers). Teens and 20-somethings rather than AARP-eligibles.
People who have become accustomed to being independently mobile are naturally going to be resistant to giving it up, at least partly out of not wanting to become an encumbrance on family and friends. I'm convinced that that was my own father's outlook, especially after Mom died and he was alone in the house.
