I thought my dad could drive with his eyes closed. He'd let the car drift to one side, and of course I'd yell for him to open his eyes so we wouldn't crash. In reality, he'd close his right eye, while leaving the left open.
Twenty years later, whenever I'm in the car with him, I have to look over to make sure his eyes are open.
