[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks everyone, I still think most of her issues are because shes nervous but I see now why walking in the dark is possible but not driving.[/quote]

Well yeah she's nervous, she can't see! I am really nervous about driving at night too. I have no depth of field when I drive at night, until I'm right there. So when I see a red light up ahead, I can't tell how far away the intersection is, so I drive crazy slow until I'm close enough to be able to tell where to stop. Often, if I see a car's brake  lights,I can't tell how far ahead of me they are. I remember driving on the highway one might and asking my husband something like "how far away is that truck in front of us? I can't tell if I need to change lanes to pass it." He was so perplexed about why I kept asking him that, and it was the first time I realized that my night vision is significantly different than others. Also, headlights from oncoming traffic blinds me.

The thing is, I drive at night when I must, but I hate it. I don't blame your friend for not wanting to drive if she can't see well. [/quote]
