    Yep, quick eye ‘test’ and Q&A with my GP every year from 75 enabled my to keep driving.  Until this year when I turned 83 and didn’t renew my licence πŸ™ I really enjoyed accident free driving in five countries in/on various vehicles and considered myself a very good driver.  I only got ‘pinged’ once when, on my 60th birthday I slowly rolled through a stop sign with nary one moving vehicle in sight in every direction πŸ™  (Probationary) Constable Plod under the stern stewardship of his (Senior) partner gave me his stern lecture and wrote me my only ticket.  Yes, yes, a ‘fair cop’ so not complaining.  Howsomever, this year on my 83rd b’day I didn’t renew my licence.  Also swore that I would stop driving at 80 but kept going πŸ˜‰ BUT I felt it was time to pull the plug as I didn’t want to be one of these drivers you hear/read about who suffer a ‘Medical Event’ and take or ruin some innocent persons life.  Been a couple of months now and still missing, terribly, the pleasure of driving but I am glad that I have done the right thing. Luckily my Nearest & Dearest is younger than me and has taken over driving duties.
