50 minutes driving a car was probably enough for me, Steve. It was a fabulous experience! With dual control and well trained instructors, I gently hit a few kerbs and narrowly missed a lamp-post but did some good work at the Transport and Road Research Centre. ...


I'll be interested in any findings on that one.

Listers,

Last June, it was mentioned that there was an episode being filmed on
Discovery Channel's Myth Busters series to see if a blind person
could drive by verbal instructions, as Al Paccino did in "Scent of a
Woman".

That program will air on Wednesday night at 9:00 EDT Discovery
Channel will have the program on Myth Busters where a blind person
attempts to drive a Saturn Ion by verbal instructions.

Don't worry about what people think, they don't do it very often.
