After reading the news report, I feel the guilty person was the passenger allowing this driver to drive in the first place. This is an incident that needs far more detailed study. I don't think I can make any further comment, other than to say this situation should never have arrived in the first place.

Thats absolutely crazy! Yeah, what is the point of the 3 year driving ban??? If the man has no eyes...he shouldnt be driving at all!!! Do they think hes going to grow eyes in the next 3 years or something??
Theres some weird stuff going on in this world...

I also heard this on LBC yesterday morning just could not believe it - but there are courses for those who are blind to experience driving a car (have you seen Scent of a Woman where Al pacino plays a blind war vet who drives a Ferrari - funny but very scary)
Radio also said the driver was an Iraqui minicab driver ..how scary is that...do you think this is a new form of terrorist we are seeing

Are you talking about the man in Oldbury, West Midlands who has been told he has to take another test. If so, it happened just round the corner from me and everyone round here is angry that he got away with it.

Haven't you people seen the 3rd matrix or that superhero film with ben alfeck (?) daredevil (?)
Blind people don't need eyes they have "special" powers!
God, sometimes people are so naive.
But Hey they won't let me drive, apparently I dont have the attention span. . . . . .

I think he thought he was Al Pacino in the film Scent of a Woman!

best part is the judge had to issue a compulsory extended driving test as part of sentence, ha ha the law is such an *** at times.
