Just interested in your views on towing a horse-trailer or even just a car whilst impaired.......and more importantly WHY you would/n't do it. Please explain.

I was thinking along the lines of aching bum after a tumble ........not like the blind guy who has been disqualified from driving!!

Hmm I'm sure impaired had the same meaning when I lived in England too - perhaps not; it may be a case of English, but not as you know it?

Anyway, absolutely no way is my answer!

Impaired by drink or drugs, no way..did come across a NH jockey a few years back who had fasted for his races and celebrated too well with the champagne afterwards. His driving was a sight to behold but the horse must have been used to it, when we took it off to a livery yard for the night while the driver blew in machines and slept it off the horse was completely chilled and a star to handle. Lucky really, it had bounced off a few kerbs and should have been climbing the walls.
Impaired physically in any other way. Well I think you would have to assess that on the circumstances.

depends on situation....
I know someone who is blind in one eye - they still drive a car/tractor!

I had a blonde moment (even more than usual) and wondered how a car or trailer would be impaired...
God I'm so blonde sometimes!!
Answer is no. Never. Unless we were being invaded by aliens or other imminent catastrophe and it was the only way to save PF...
