If this test isn&#8217;t completed to the officers satisfaction then they can send the report to the Driver Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) which until quite recently took days and even weeks to process and complete. However what they\u2019ve done now in the hope of making the roads safer for all drivers is they can now send the report by email which will only take hours in oppose to what it used to take. This makes it much easier to get motorists with bad eyesight who are a risk to others off the road much quicker.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Motorists used to be able to continue driving through the hours or weeks that the report would take to process, this was a massive danger and the inevitable happened when Jackie McCord\u2019s 16 year old daughter was struck down by a driver who had failed a recent roadside eyesight test and subsequently she was killed. This driver was wrongfully yet legally allowed to drive on the road making it unable to point the blame. Jackie McCord the mother of the girl had numerous campaigns and petitions to see that someone amended this danger hazard, eventually partially successful.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Some drivers still believe that justice was not fully amended as they still don&#8217;t see this as a strict enough guideline. Many people believe that drivers should take regular sight tests so it prevents this happening in the first place rather than just waiting for another accident to happen. The subject is still very much open to controversy with a divided split on people unable to come up with a solid conclusion, so it appears that this is the quick solve medium to appease the general motorist population.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Now if police are concerned about motorists with bad eyesight they can order an on the spot sight test for the driver.
