I was wondering if like me, other people on this site have poor spacial awareness, i can't go out without bumping
into something or someone! its really embarrassing at times! It certainly does not bode well for me learning to drive!
Although to be honest i don't really care, is this weird? most of the people i know think so, and are always urging me to learn.
Is there anyone on this forum who feels the same way?
I have no desire to learn to drive, partly from a financial point of view, partly from lack of need and mainly from just not wanting to. I had about a dozen lessons about 5 years ago, but since then nada. My lessons were a disaster, with my left and right issues predominating, but also my slow reaction times also causing a significant problem. Fortunately, I live three minutes walk from a train station, and work 4 minutes walk from a station the other end with only a platform change in between.
Walking into things constantly - I knocked a wall bracket off the wall the other day in work and had to call the Building Admin staff to repair it before the wall collapsed!

A bus pass, now that sounds handy! I must spend a fortune on public transport! How do i get
my hands on one? Are there any requirements creative? Its nice to know I'm not the only one who
is reluctant to drive!
I didnt know you could get one for dyspraxia!! I have mine on the grounds of my epilepsy, has saved me a fortune since its gone national rather than just local, got the bus to southampton the other week, and regularly go to bristol now!"

I didn't either until my Dad suggested I apply for one. He had heard of someone who had got one on account of another learning difficulty. I was suprised to get it though. After all I have never had a test done to see if I would be able to drive. I may be able to drive it may just be a challenge.
