Growing up Boomer

Baby Boomers and when it’s time to turn in the car keys

Navigating the roads of life can be a journey filled with twists and turns, especially as we age. For Baby Boomers, the question of when to hang up the keys and retire from driving is both important and a bit sensitive. A good indicator to hang up the keys is when you’re told to slow down by your doctor and not the police.
