We went through this. with Traci's Dad. We begged and pleaded, and finally just took and hid all the keys. Sneaky old guy had a spare set for his van. I remember coming home from work one day, and it looked like the van had moved, and sure enough , the motor was warm.
Pulled the fuel pump relay, and fuse. It felt ****ty to do it, but he was clearly endangering not only his own life, but others on the road. He would go out, and get lost, and run out of gas. I had to pick him up a bunch of times, when the police found him disorientated, and out of fuel on the side of the road. It was at their suggestion that I did it. There was one time, where he had sat so long on the side of the road out of fuel, that he soiled himself , waiting for someone to come by and pick him up. He really hated me for taking away his freedom but it is what it is. I tried to take him for rides in the evening, and weekends to get him out of the house.
