Someone with dementia has no business being on the road, no matter their age. There comes a time when an elderly person's driving privileged has to be removed; by your own account she can't pass a driving test so it's time. Waiting until she's harmed herself, or worse yet, someone else, is incredibly bad advice. Anyone with a lick of common sense could see that.

And what happens if that "fender bender" is with kid on a bike?

I'm hopped up on all kinds of medications too...
Those two comments should be enough to you to disqualify you from driving.

No, not everyone does. Neither my wife nor I take any pills of any sort.
