Someday I may tell the tale of my grandpa, who refused to stop driving

Re: Mom stopped driving
My f-i-l was finally "convinced " to stop driving after being found stuck in the mud in a cow pasture 50 miles from home. He told the officers he had no idea where he was, how he got there and the President was most likely Reagan.
... The stars were suns, but so far away they were just little points of light ... The scale of the universe suddenly opened up to me. It was a kind of religious experience. There was a magnificence to it, a grandeur, a scale which has never left me. Never ever left me.

Re: Mom stopped driving
I can’t wait until I can quit driving. I hate it.
Besides, I want to die peacefully in my sleep, like my grandpa. Not screaming and on fire like the passengers in his car
