Funny you should ask that. When I ride as a passenger, I feel like others are encroaching our lane. My husband doesn't even flinch. so I guess they aren't that close. I did see an Opthamologist (sp?) and was given a series of machine tests.

One of them showed I have peripheral vision issues, but they were random. I think that was due to the fact that my prosessing was very slow at the time. I would click on the button as soon as I saw the flashing lights in the test, but maybe it was registering late?

I still haven't attempted to drive, maybe hubby will take me this weekend. can't believe I am so nervous about it!
