:icon_sorry:, but it has to be said, "better safe than sorry"!
Besides ... :anerikke: ... most - if not ALL - of those affected will be eligible to receive a Bus Pass ... either on account of age or disability.

I'd be absolutely fuming if this had happened to me :cwm23:

Maybe so, Simon :icon_rolleyes: ... but I should imagine the vast majority of the drivers to whom this applies are likely to be elderly:olddude: as portrayed in the link I've supplied!

I need glasses for driving...
Although my optician told me I don't....
But I know I do as I can't read road signs and see number plates from a distance without my glasses... My eyes aren't too bad but I wouldn't drive without my glasses and can tell the difference when I have them on.
I had lazer treatment 16 years ago as I was very very short sighted, best £1500 I ever spent.... They said back then I would probably need glasses later in life for reading or driving.... So not surprised.

I have pretty much given up driving now, as it no longer gives me any pleasure...on today's roads.
So that's one less half-blind old duffer off the road :olddude:...and confined to the Xbox...for which I do still need my 'driving' glasses. :biggrin:
