Andy, epileptics aren't allowed to drive, correct?

Kenny, your boy needs to buy some friggen glasses. America's Best or Walmart are both pretty cheap from what I understand.

At one point while we were 3 feet from the back of an 18 wheeler, I asked him if he was trying to get even better mileage from his electric car by drafting.

His response ... "No, I just lack depth perception"

If there aren't good markers on the side of the road, he cant tell how far he is from anything.

Apparently those flashing security lights at temple were enough to induce a seizure. His body locked up with his foot pinned on the gas. He knew that he was an epileptic and still drove. I got into a fight with his brother at the hospital that night and spent the night in jail. If I ever see him out in public he's a dead ****ing man.
