There's been a lot of talk about Meta AI Smart Glasses, but how helpful are they for people with vision loss? Ricky and Steve put them to the test with everyday tasks, showing where they work well and where they fall short.

Did you know cruise control was invented by a blind engineer?

Ralph Teetor lost his sight at the age of five, but that didn't stop him from becoming a successful engineer and inventor.

In the 1940s, he developed the technology that would eventually become modern cruise control, a feature used in millions of vehicles today.

His story is a reminder that vision loss does not limit a person's ability to innovate, create, and make a lasting impact on the world.

Kentucky state law 189.575 States that “the operator of a vehicle shall yield the right-of-way to any blind pedestrian carrying a clearly visible white
cane or accompanied by an assistance dog” and outlines specific penalties and fines. All states have similar laws, but requirements, penalties and fines
vary.
