It was hard buut my sister and I told my father that it was time to let someone else drive and hang up the keys. I also told him that it was too expensive for him to maintain insurance and repairs based on the limited milage he did. That was 5 years ago, he's 92+ now. He said he understood and relinqushed the keys. Now he relies on family members to get him around. That allows for more time with him.
My wife and I had to do the same thing for my FIL. I don't think I will like it though!!
Not an easy thing, but it has to be done gently and understanding. Good Luck
