I don't think I have night blindness, but I know I have a hard time driving in the dark. Even if I try to look away from other cars' headlights, they prevent me from seeing the road. I felt like I couldn't see anything today and I had to try really hard to stay in my lane. I don't have that much driving experience, especially in the dark, but I wonder if it's normal that I have this hard of a time seeing. What could be wrong?

The Police have jobs to keep us safe but do not keep us safe at all. If they do a highspeed chase they are not keeping the pubilc safe

What do you think?

P.S. The police only care
about there selfs not the public
the police only keep there selfs
safe not us.

There is a two lane road one going one direction, the other going in another direction. I was pulling into the gas station, so i putted onmy blinker and stop. Because I had to wait for the traffic to clear so i can get into the gas station. There was a truck behind me and was in a little bit of a rush, so he decided to go around me , over the little white line. i didnt see him over there and plus he wasnt suppose to be over there. i than realize and changed my mind that i really dont need gas right now. when i took off my blinker off and proceeded to go straight. our trucks met. if i didnt have inspection on my truck. Could i still sue that person for there wrong doing and for me having pain in my neck and back.

I think buses should have the type of seatbelt that rollercoasters have. Overhead padded bars with a safety switch that would disable the bus if they weren't connected, and also would automatically disengage after an accident.

I think drivers should be able to VOLUNARILY re sit their driving tests after so many years and if deemed to have improved their driving then they should be rewarded by cheaper insurance????

I was on the bus coming home last night and a drunk boarded the bus. The guy could hardly stand and was next to the driver looking out his fare when the driver decided to drive off. The driver took a corner at speed and caused the drunk to lose his footing, fall back into the entrance doors and badly bang his head causing it to bleed. The driver didn't even ask if the guy was ok instead just threw him off the bus. My neighbour happened to be on the bus and wasn't happy with the way the guy was being treated so ordered the driver to wait whilst she checked he was ok. It was just as well she checked as the guy needed an ambulance.

I don't think the driver should've been happy to throw the guy off the bus given the state he was in. Should I say something to the bus company about the driver?

anyone else afraid of old people driving? The other day, I noticed an old person driving so nervously, that his car kept drifting along the lanes. There was also some glare but still. He was an elderly person. Shouldn't they get another driving test because its rediculous how there are soo many old people driving...driving with them is just scary

People, we know you are turning when you are already in the bay! How about giving us some heads up and turn your blinker on letting us know you are going to turn into the bay BEFORE you turn into it? Think a little harder and the concept of the blinker will hopefully come to you!!

Braille is written language for the blind using a series of raised dots in sequenced combinations to produce letters that can be felt as the finger is moved across them. ATM machines are for people to withdraw and deposit money in their bank accounts. A drive up ATM machine is one that can be accessed from outside by driving your car up next to it and rolling down your window to use it. Since blind people do not drive, why are brail dots on these ATM machines?
