    143 - Driving (Original Airdate February 19, 2023)

    DG dives into the challenges and realities of aging, using personal stories from her own family to highlight issues around independence, driving safety, and access to care. She shares the emotional hurdles faced by older adults—how embarrassment often keeps them from asking for help, sometimes leading them into dangerous situations like unsafe driving. DG describes her experience navigating the healthcare and legal systems to support her in-laws, emphasizing just how difficult it can be to find appropriate help, even for veterans. Another major focus is the need for better laws and public transportation options for people with dementia or other conditions that affect their ability to drive safely. DG discusses how current legislation puts too much responsibility on families, how many doctors avoid reporting unsafe drivers, and backs up her opinions with real-life stories and studies highlighting the risks. The episode closes with a call to action: reach out to lawmakers to improve legislation, advocate for increased public transport, and remember that aging is a natural part of life—let’s create a culture that recognizes, respects, and supports it.
