I thought the worst (and probably quite typical) example was the woman who refsed to believe that she was unsafe as she might fall asleep at the wheel, which was proven by the fact that she fell asleep for 12 minutes without knowing it in the test. It's that kind of attitude that the driver in the original post had.:(
 
What a stupid stupid man to get behind the wheel of a motor car and drive whilst virtually blind. No punishment will ever bring any comfort to this lady's poor family, but a custodial sentence should have been imposed as a reminder that this irresponsible, idiotic and reckless behaviour is not tolerated by the Police and the Courts. ?1500 fine is shocking and it's time the judicial system was overhauled!😡
