I'm really appreciating all the responses so far and your willingness to share.

One of my neighbors asked me recently, "So how long are they going to let you keep driving?" I stood there with my mouth open for a few seconds, then said something clever like "Uh...my driving is fine, thank you."

And it is. Fatigue is a big problem, so I plan well. My "trips" are early in the day, and if I have to go very far I stay overnight. I do NOT do well in heavy, fast traffic, so I avoid it. I get off the interstate and go around major merge in/merge out spots, especially at busy times of day.

Other than that, my eyesight is fine, reflexes good, no trouble moving my foot from gas to brake. (It's my left leg that is giving me trouble)

I have always been a white-knuckle passenger, and dread the possibility of not being able to drive myself. My husband gave up his license several years ago, my daughter is moving a couple hours away, and I might (might) ride with my son in an emergency, such as I was bleeding from a major artery.

I'm not a city girl, but I guess I need to look at the possibility of relocating, if necessary, to where there is public transportation.

I know I can't cross the bridge until I come to it, but I like to do a little advance planning--how high and wide is the bridge, etc. The day might never come, or not for many years, but I'd like to get my mind wrapped around the idea just in case, and it helps to know how others cope.
