What a sad ending but at least her loved ones have some closure.
Some questions around her confusion did she deliberately end her life or take a catastrophic wrong turn.
Highlights a need for care among the elderly community getting behind the wheel. Speaking from personal experience with parents with Dementia who thankfully took medical advice to cease driving.
Just my thoughts and opinions
RIP
