Peter Davies, from Burry Port, Carmarthenshire, has just 50% effective vision in one eye and 45% in the other.

The 25-year-old recently mounted a kerb and crashed into a fence and admits his parking leaves a lot to be desired.

Pam Every, a local town councillor and chairwoman of the Isgraig Tenants and Residents' Association, said he was not fit to drive.

She said: "Just last month he mounted a kerb that was three or four foot wide and hit a fence. There could have been a child or adult walking there and he could have hurt or even killed them."

Mr Davies is currently taking lessons from his father, Anthony, as his last instructor abandoned him without any notice or explanation.

I bet I know why

..wait a min.now. If he FEELS he can drive.. they should just go ahead and give him a license. It'a all about FEELINGS and sensitivity. Just go ahead and give it to him. Mabe even a good driver award to get him started.
