Say, didn't I read somewhere that old folks can renew their Florida
drivers' licenses BY MAIL -- over and over -- so that they never
are required to take a vision, hearing, skill, or any other driving
test at all ?
I suggest some righteous venting to your state gov'mint !!
Do your duty as a concerned citizen ! I have some old relatives
in Florida myseff, they call Florida `God's waiting room', and
they say it's not even safe on the sidewalks -- old blind drivers
bounce up over the curbs and hit pedestrians in their neighborhood,
at least once recently !
Good luck 8-)
