Texas official warns on legally blind drivers on road safety
Col Homer Garrison notes that about one thousand Texas optometrists know three to four thousand drivers who draw state and federal compensation for blindness. He explains legal blindness occurs before complete blindness and urges caution on highways, citing a driver with a commercial license who remains able to operate large vehicles. He urges drivers to stay alert and skeptical of other motorists.
