Drivers who wear glasses may find themselves caught out on a little-known law that could lead to a hefty fine.
Both long and short sighted motorists could find themselves fined for not wearing their glasses when driving. These fines could be as high as £1,000 and drivers may also face three penalty points.
If you have a glasses prescription and it is found that you weren't wearing your glasses when an accident occurred, it may be deemed your fault. Because of this - even if you don't always wear your glasses - so long as your prescription deems that they are required for driving, you must always wear them while behind the wheel.
