    After Deb had her stroke,she dearly wanted to drive again.
    It took quite a few tense arguments but reality finally sunk in.She recently didn't renew her drivers licence.Hasnt driven since the stroke,I don't believe she can think quickly enough when needed to.

    Only a few more sleeps JC, then you can meet me in person. I promise to give you a big hug and make it all better! (everything will seem better if I am not hugging you!).

    hey Justin
    im hearing you, after pushing myself for 29 year after my accident now I can't work, had to close my business, lost my house because I couldn't meet repayments, too much stress for relationship and now I have no alternative than to go bankrupt and an operation that would be rather life changing the insurance company have said no to. All because a trucks indicators didn't work.

    im doing my best not to let it get to me but my goodness it can be bloody hard at times

    take care

    I chef at one of the sites we work at had a history of seizures.

    I didn't know of this until after the incident,and still don't know whether he had a license or not.

    He had a seizure driving home and hit another vehicle,driven by an off duty police woman,she had just picked her two children.

    One didn't survive the accident,the other was very badly injured.

    The chef got 5yrs jail.

    Doesn't really help the innocent people that had their lives changed for ever,but i suppose it is what he deserved.

    Hi Justin, sorry to hear you are feeling the pain.
    i followed a guy through Kingston months ago who just put of site of me plowed through the roundabout outside my kids school. Knocked down a quite big sign. I didn't get his rego cause too far away but I went back down to have a look after picking up my boy, got his rego before he drove off. I asked he other people standing there, including 2 council workers, if anyone had called the cops, no one even had thought too! I said I would because I had seem him do some other vague things like almost drive off a straight bit of the highway. The police lady said they'd give him a visit, sad when people get to that point in life but it sure as anything is NOT worth risking anyone else's life so they can have 'independence'. There are other ways to get around.

    The 85 year old father in law just had his compulsory driving test and passed easily, so he's happy.
