BLIND MAN DRIVE BAN

A MAN with no eyes was banned from driving for three years yesterday - and told he'd have to "take an extended test" if he ever applied for licence.
Immigrant Iraqi Omed Aziz, 31, was blinded by a bomb in his homeland.
Police who stopped his M-reg Peugeot in Oldbury, West Midlands, were told he was "trying out his abilities" under guidance from a passenger friend who already had a ban.
Local JPs made Aziz, of Darlaston, Britain's first blind man to be convicted of dangerous driving.
But, after ordering him to change his T-shirt reading "B4D MO7H3R FU5K3R", they suspended a three-month jail term
