DVLA £1,000 fine and penalty points warning to any driver who wears glasses

Drivers who wear glasses have been warned that they could face hefty fines, and penalty points for driving without their prescription pair.

Brits who are long-sighted or short could face a fine of up to £1,000 and three penalty points for driving their vehicle without their specs.

Motorists must also be aware that they may be at risk of invalidating their car insurance policy if they do not wear their prescription glasses at the time of an accident - which is then later deemed their fault, reports the Liverpool Echo.
