The 93rd birthday of Queen Elizabeth II is just around the corner, and with that said it is logical that she won’t be driving anymore. If we are honest it is strange that the Queen was still driving till this day, and the reasons why this is strange are many. For example, she is a queen, so why would she be driving herself anywhere, and the other reason is that she is pretty old.
But the Queen decided to voluntarily give up driving on public roads. Her security team advised her to do that and she agreed with them. Was it something that she wanted to do, or did she decided to do that after Prince Philip’s car crash that happened earlier this year?
