I read somewhere once that this is much more of a problem in the United States than many other countries. Many countries are more family oriented, so often times the children and even grandchildren help take care of the elderly and drive them around town when needed. While many other countries have a much better public transportation system, making it easier for the elderly to get around. European countries, for example, have much more accessible public transportation than we do here in the States.
