Those Wacky British

The BBC is reporting that a blind driver in England has had his license suspended for three years for the egregious offense of driving 35mph in a built-up area. Uh... you couldn't think of anything else to cite him for?

A blind man convicted of dangerous driving, after police spotted his car on the wrong side of the road, has been given a suspended jail sentence.

Omed Aziz, 31, from Darlaston, West Midlands, who was being directed by an allegedly banned driver, was given 12 weeks in prison suspended for a year.

He has also been banned from driving for three years and ordered to take an extended driving test.

Magistrates heard he reached up to 35mph (56km/h) in a built-up area.
