Hi, Being new to driving with one eye, I'm looking for a vehicle that is not only safe, but would have the rear backup sensors, or front senors, darker tinted windows as allowable by law all the way around and other stuff. Is there any consensus on vehicles? Not that I expect one - it's kind of like jelly. Everyone loves their favorite. Input would be nice. Thanks, I didn't find the right solution from the internet.

I'm not sure what vehicle would be right for you but I'll keep an eye out.

Honda Insight has to be worth a look.

Wasn't the Sierra called a Jelly mould? That would fit the bill nicely.

All BMWs can be specced with i-Drive.

I'm checking out cars with good over the shoulder visibility, you don't want a blind spot

The prescription windscreen idea is great until you think how sick it would make the passengers, especially if it was of the magnifying variety (heavy rain might look like someone throwing buckets of water at you!). And then there's the problem of what you do when you get out the car and can't see a thing, let alone finding the car afterwards and scaring the sh*t out of everyone as you tap your white stick way back to the car, climb in and drive off.
Is there a requirement to warn anyone you sell the car to or is it buyer beware?
Obviously too difficult just to wear the glasses all the time!

Mrs Sacamano actually is completely blind in her left eye (the result of a childhood accident) although you'd never know it. If there is an element of good fortune in this it is that it is easier to drive a right hand drive car where she has far more vision to her right and over her shoulder, than a left hand drive one. This means we can only ever emigrate to former British colonies or Japan. It's certainly never been a factor in her choice of car.
FWIW she's never had an accident or even a speeding ticket, something she reminds me of frequently.
