Transportation Options
One of the reasons
many people continue
to drive beyond the
time they can safely
do so is they feel they
have no transportation
choices to get to where
they need and want
to go. When planning for the day you will retire from
driving, the first thing you should do is find out what
transportation options are available in your community.
Knowing how you will get around to continue enjoying
the places you like to go.
To find a complete listing of all transportation options
available in your community, please visit www.FLsams.
