#1 Posted: 2/27/2012 9:24:34 PM I just got my NY State Drivers license renewal, and tried to register online but to no avail...Apparently when you are over 35 (i am 39) you need to get a Eye test done before you are able to renew.....Ouch what a kick to the balls that is.........I am getting old

#5 Posted: 2/28/2012 10:47:15 AM Just renewed my FL license,but took the precaution of getting glasses first if I failed the eye test which I thought I would.It was over ten years and had trouble with the bottom line back then.Renewed it once online.
So I take the eye test and the lady says read the MIDDLE line which I passed no problem..and a solid 8 year renewal..So basically in Fl at age 40 or so you read the hardest line and at 50 or so you read the easier middle lines.. |

Passengers in cars can use drive up ATMs. 
And it is easier just to leave the Braille on there than to make different keypads anyways. |

#17 Posted: 2/29/2012 10:35:40 PM wonder might be able to ride in the rolls, but he won't be able to appreciate it, so it IS wasted on him--but the driver might like it. |
