Wow, touchy, touchy. Im sorry if I found some humor in your post. I mean we have all kinds of handicapped people driving. People in wheel chairs, amputees, etc. I just didnt see any reason why deaf people shouldnt be able to drive. I promise I'll never laugh at you again.

You guys that think deaf people shouldnt drive are welcome to start a political campaign to take away their licenses, but I dont think youll get very far. I work in construction, have minor hearing loss, and sometimes can not hear sirens above my car stereo. (I can see the big colorful flashing lights, though)
When I made the joke it was meant lightheartedly and wasnt taken that way. Not everyone has the same sense of humor, and its hard to spot the more "sensitive" types in an online forum than in real life. my mistake, I apologize for any hurt feelings, but I'm not going to sit here and argue about why deaf people shouldnt have drivers licenses. To me its a no brainer. Id rather be trying to figure out how to get my POS car to launch like it should.

FWIW I never took much offense to your post. Just a little jab and a jab back.

wow guys lets chill lol, I love you both, there. Im in a wheelchair and I drive my beast fine
its the tires that dont work with me all the time. Deaf people as long as they can see things around them then why not, as far as trains, we have lights and big *** peaces of wood that come down in front of you, if someones tires are squealing, its not the deaf guys fault, and if someone is going to hit him there is nothing he can do about it, nor people that can hear, what makes the difference if you can hear someone getting rdy to hit you or not lol, as long as your seat belt is on all you can do is hold on. I dont know anyways nuff said.
