Chaps- thank you very much for the input. I have also been in touch with a Racing Driver Performance Specialist ( with particular interest in eye performance) who very much agrees with the train of thought on here- ie make the eyes scan.
He in turn has put me in touch with a ( German) Optometrist who suggests that I take another FOV test- to work out the exact blind spot- and then make a decision on whether a wrap-around or VR technology will address my particular loss..if it’s too great- other techniques would work better ( Sportster has outlined some of those - which I have immediately adopted. Thank you)
Alistair- if it turns out that a technology approach might work- I’d be grateful for further help on the procurement choice/ set up front! ( sounds like a lot of fun anyway!).
Howard- I haven’t actually given my licence up yet- as I have to have a test to prove to the DVLA that they need to revoke my licence. ( so I’m told!). Lockdown is delaying things. What GP note did you acquire? I’ve not been told about that. ( hope you are well recovered?).
My two day old grandson left hospital this morning during the snow. They had to pull over and park up- my wife did a sterling job rescuing the little chap and family in the 110. I was commentating-from the passenger seat- not sure how useful I was!!
He had been blue- lighted in from an aborted home birth on Friday.
Quite a way to come into the world as a true Lockdown Baby.
Thanks again all. JB
