Hiya All

Rhiannon we are in Australia and it is more than likely that different laws apply in the Ohio (US). I know some-one who was on a heavy dosage of psych meds. They side swiped another car when driving and took the others car side mirror off. She had no recall about driving at all.

When the police eventually caught up with her she admitted to being on medication at the time. (A second person telling them that would be inadmissable). The police could have used their discretion and not fined her and taken her licence away..... as she was served with a summons to court one day less than a full year. Eventually she lost her licence for 3 years.... I dont know if she will ever get it back. But truly she could have had a mojor accident with fatal consequences.

I am sorry Promises to keep that your apartment manager was very cruel.

I just got a different car and scraped the fence as I wasnt quite sure of the size of the car.

But its true, we all need to keep ourselves safe an be very aware of our surroundings at all times while driving. I move heavy medications to night times. If I need to take them during the day - then i normally sleep in my bed.

I suppose one bright side is that buses are much cheaper than cars...... but that doesn't help you much.........
