BELOIT, Wis. (AP) - A man ran his truck through the wall of a liquor store after his prosthetic leg became jammed between the accelerator and brake pedal. Martin E. Nehls, 49, had parked his Chevy Silverado in the Spirits of 51 lot, police said. When he put the truck into drive on Saturday morning, his prosthetic leg slipped off the brake and hit the gas. Then it got stuck between the two pedals, causing the truck to move forward and hit the building, police said. Nehls was not injured. Police cited him for operating a motor vehicle without a valid driver's license. |
What do you think, should handicapped people be allowed to drive and operate motorized vehicles or not? I think not.
I think someone disabled should be allowed to drive, though they should obviously have to get a license. If it's a disability that clearly would make them unable to drive then no (such as blindness), but what happened with his prosthetic leg could have happened with a different object too, it doesn't necessarily make him unable to drive safely.
yes I also think somone disabled aslongits not somthinglike blindness should beable todrive if they have a license
Yes. Disabled people should be allowed to drive. Actually, I'm sure most accidents happen because of abled people, not disabled
