I heard about this on the news!
Apparently the passenger was giving him directions as he drove!
How mad is that???
They're lucky they didn't kill anyone! :-5

It would have made my day if the cops had found a vacuum pump on the passenger seat.#1
It would also have explained his blindness. :wah:

Oh children, you missed the bit from a previous report on the case... "He has also been banned from driving for three years and ordered to take an extended driving test". He sounds determined to overcome his disability, maybe he'll even apply for it.

Wow what a story, he must have a serious love for driving for wanting to take to the road despite his blindness. Extremely foolish if you ask me, just imagine what could of happened, good job no-one was hurt.
