I’m visually impaired – I want to buy a car.?

I live in rural ky. I’m visually impaired and can longer drive – though I have plenty of vision.

There is no cab service, here. I often pay others for rides to go where I need to go – and there is too many issues with those peoples dependability, and their vehicles dependability.

What is the easiest way for me to own my own car and have insurance to cover licensed driver(s) that would “work for me” when I need to go somewhere? The car would go 50 miles per week.

I know someone is a similar situation (who has way more money than me and travels 1000 miles per week). She says it is easy for her because she has her own business, and the car is in the businesses’ name, and anyone on her payroll can drive it – as long as she submits the driver’s information to her insurance company, prior.

Do I have to go through all that kind of trouble to get set-up like her? What is the easiest route for me to accomplish the same or similar. I want to be the owner of the vehicle – but I can’t drive.

Thanks.

Will you help me with an informal survey of visually impaired cane users with remaining vision?

What is your vision (visual acuity ie. 20/200)? Why do you use a cane for travel? And did you learn to use the cane under blindfold or sleep shade?

I am an orientation and mobility specialist working on yet another paper for school and would love to have your input to make me a better instructor.
Thank you for the book suggestion, I looked it up online and, based on the review from a 1969 Time magazine article, the information is still very pertinent today. I will get myself a copy.

Any good vacation ideas for a visually impaired person traveling solo?

A cruise is a possibility, any other ideas?

Do visually impaired whales travel in eye pods?
