As we get older, several things in life have to change, one of which might be adjusting to life without a car, as driving becomes simply too dangerous due to a lack of the physical and mental skills needed to drive.
While it can be frustrating at first not to have a vehicle it can have positive benefits to your health and your pocket. No more having to spend a fortune on owning a car paying out for such things as insurance, registration, gasoline and maintenance.
In addition, the alternative methods of getting from A to B can be very healthy such as walking and cycling. The extra exercise can boost energy, improve confidence, help with stiff joints and promote better sleep patterns.
It is essential to find alternatives to driving or you may become more introverted and housebound and this can lead to depression. If there is no public transport available to get to doctors appointments or the supermarket shop don’t be shy about asking a neighbor or friend for a ride, and offer to pay for the gas or cook a meal for them in return.
