Default Blind Man Drives a Mustang - but a cool story

I have the pleasure of being the editor of these videos - wrong car, I know, but still a great story... This is the 60 second tease video. Chapter 1 is also available with Chapters 2 and 3 due next week.

I'm thinking he could come down here to Florida and get his license renewed and drive. I don't think anyone would know the difference down here. Jerry

At club event we had a competition that had the driver blindfolded and the passenger directed the driver. The passenger had to pick up tennis ***** from traffic cones. It was a very strange feeling because if you were not braking or accelerating, you had no idea of your speed.

Chapter 2 gets released next week when we get to see him drive the car, and chapter 3 has a really nice surprise for everyone. As car enthusiasts, I thought you would all appreciate this guy's story. He works at a community center helping others with disabilities start businesses and lead independent lives. He is an asset to his community in Athens. I think you can tell I am a bit inspired by this guy.
