Driving Me Crazy is about a family and their relationships with each other and the vehicles that move them around. Inspired by stories from three generations, Driving Me Crazy, follows Liz, a grand mother fighting to keep her driver’s license, her independence and her voice in society. Liz is supported by her family: a son and daughter-in-law who are addicted to their cars and stuck in gridlock, a granddaughter who is passionate about the environmental fight against oil guzzling vehicles, and a grandson on his way to learn hard lessons about drinking and driving. Anyone who has driven a car, been driven in a car, or been driven mad by their own family will laugh, cry and gasp.
