>tfw keep being told by doctors that eyesight isslightly below the threshold for being able to legally drive
>tfw not-correctable
Anyone else on /o/ know this feel? Do you still drive, or do you maintain your interest in vehicles without being able to drive?

Dude, my eyesight is bad enough so I can't drive but I wear glasses for driving.
Shit ain't that bad. You're making mountains out of molehills
Why isn't it correctable??
>>16705751
Congenital nystagmus. Non-correctable shortsightedness.
>be me
>be interested in cars, driving
>want to join Air Force as pilot or flight officer
>essentially need to have great vision forever
Fuck man, eat your carrots.
Also, I know for a fact there's a large amount of people on the road that legally shouldn't be driving. Even though it scares me and I shouldn't be enabling a danger on the road, I'm gonna have to assume if it's not getting worse and you still drive you're okay...

Aren't officers the paper-pushers?
>>16705781
Holy shit anon, I'm in the exact same situation. It fucking sucks that I'll probably never be able to really become a pilot just because I need to wear glasses with the weakest fucking prescription ever.
>>16705797
Where I'm at you have to be an officer before you can be a pilot. Not to mention a mandatory sign up for something like 10 years.
Shit muh dood that's sad as.
How bad is your eyesight?
>>16705781
Thats the feel I know. You can be a pilot with glasses just not a pilot for the government. Who wants to fly a 747 though. I wanna fly a jet or apache
my guess is if you can go to dmv and see that shit in the machine nobodys gonna question it. if you fail that shit in the machine so man i guess i should get me eyes checked and walk out

>Who wants to fly a 747 though
idk my mom used to fly 747, is on 777 now, seems pretty cool, you just fly around the world all the time and get paid like $300/hr even while youre sleeping in your fully paid for hotel
and if youre on a jet that big, youre only going to big cities, not flying out to bumfuck nowhere or whatever
>>16708281
I mean that is true. Still wanna go fast and do loops and shit. You know pull some maneuvers. That's not what commercial jets are for though. That does sound like a good job, would enjoy doing that.

No. I have a gf and it kinda sucks in those situation because I'm not a degenerate cheater.
>>16708328
I never said theycouldn't do it. I think that is frowned on when you have a load of people onboard
>not wearing contacts
Good vision is a meme
I wake up in 5 seconds put in contacts and have 20/20 vision
