My father is having random sudden weakness in his knees, where he will be walking and almost fall down. what could this be a sign of?

Locking knees? : It's important to find out if it is true weakness or just knees gets locked and he falls. Is weakness only happens while waking? Would recommend virtual consult or concierge to look further in to it. It's hard to say from very information
