Interesting display of attitudes.

Mum’s driving was so dire I was terrified to share a car with her. But shop her to the DVLA? Never!
She couldn’t kick it even when, in her late 70s, lameness in her left leg meant she had to buy an automatic. Whenever the car drew to a halt, she would instinctively press the accelerator and the (non-existent) clutch pedal. Her accident rate, always high, increased accordingly, with a shunt every couple of weeks.
It came to the point where my sister Catherine refused any offer of a lift from our mother, taking public transport even when they were heading for the same destination, while banning her own daughter from getting into any car which had her grandmother at the wheel.
Interesting display of attitudes.
