A group of senior citizens were exchanging complaints about their ailments.
"My arm is so weak that I can hardly hold this coffee cup."
"Yes, I know. My cataracts are so bad that I can't see to pour my coffee."
"I can't turn my head because of the arthritis in my neck."
"My blood pressure pills make my dizzy." "I guess that's the price we pay for getting old."
"Well, it's not all bad. We should be thankful that we can still drive."

Most of the hit and runs are from old people who have hit somebody without even knowing it.  |

I saw a car one day that had big signs on the sides and rear that said "Caution: Vision Impaired Driver" and of course it was some old geezer who looked like he died behind the wheel. Why would they give him a license?

Why would they give him a license? I have the answer  Occupational Therapy will provide an on the road evaluation of any individual with a disability and assess their driving skills and determine what compensation techniques, equipment and or training is needed. Once the person has completed this assessment and training they can complete the regular driving test and if they pass they have a license. ( I worked in OT for years, was never brave enough to do the driving program  ) |
