bit of a moral dilemma

For his own safety as well as the safety of others, I think the DVLA should be made aware.

For the safety of others, as well as himself, I would either report him myself or ask his GP to get involved. You would never forgive yourself if you did nothing and then an accident happened.
What a shame his sister has died, how long do you think he will be able to cope alone?

It is difficult as you are a neighbour but could you not do it anonymously? You would feel terrible if he killed someone and you hadn't done anything to prevent it. If the other neighbours feel the same you could all just blame each other if he accuses you. A dilemma indeed.

Without a doubt. He might hurt, or kill, someone.

Sadly our lovely neighbour passed away last weekend. She shared a house with her brother who is in his eighties and is living with dementia. There are no other relatives.The problem is he is still driving and we and our other neighbours don't think he's safe. I followed him home from town a couple of days ago, it was a hairy experience!!
Our other neighbour has suggested to him that it's time to stop but he won't listen.
Would you report him to DVLA ?
