Vision Problems and Car Accidents in Hollywood

Published on: February 21, 2024 | By Flaxman Law Group

When drivers get a license in Florida, they need to pass a vision test and prove they have at least 20/70 vision. Drivers who do not meet this minimum standard have restriction code A on their licenses, meaning they must wear corrective lenses whenever they’re driving. Drives who cannot meet the minimum standard for vision (for example, individuals who need glasses with telescopic lenses or individuals who cannot meet the minimum vision requirements with corrective lenses) may not get their license.

The problem is that vision can decline over time, often gradually, and some drivers with vision problems may not wear corrective lenses or take other precautions. If this kind of driver causes an accident that results in your injury, contact Flaxman Law Group for a free accident consultation with a Hollywood car accident injury lawyer. You may have a claim.
