Half Drivers Can't Read License Plates
Description
New research reveals half of drivers can’t read license plates from 20 meters—the legal minimum—and one in six didn’t even know there’s a vision requirement. Shockingly, 42% admit they need glasses or contacts to drive, yet over one in six still drive without them. Public opinion is split on testing frequency, with many calling for annual or triennial checks. Experts say the system is failing and urge urgent reforms, especially for drivers over 70, to prevent avoidable accidents. Vision on the road isn’t optional—it’s critical, and action is needed now.
