TAKING CHARGE OF YOUR TRAVEL
To drive or not to drive—that is the question.
Finding the answer, and the best option for you,
starts with a look at the factors that influence
transportation decisions.
Even if you do not choose to limit or stop driving,
you still may encounter circumstances where
an alternative form of transportation is a more
reliable, easier, or cost-effective solution for
getting around. Understanding options and
how they meet financial and mobility needs can
simplify the decision process.
Recognize the value of staying mobile even
if not driving.
Develop a plan for using other transportation
options.
Recognize the signs of unsafe driving.
Recognize the importance and benefits of
assessing driving skills periodically.
Understand state-specific laws/requirements.
Complete the Knowledge Check successfully
on these topics.
DIFFERENT CHANGES CAN BRING
MANY POSITIVES
For instance, when you choose not to drive
yourself as much, you can expand your
social circles by RIDING WITH FRIENDS AND
NEIGHBORS. If you opt to no longer own
a vehicle, you can treat yourself to the
luxuries of being a pampered passenger.
Like so much else in life, it all comes down
to perspective.
