Color blind and get a driver's license?
If you are color blind, you usually cannot distinguish between red and green. However, this is usually not a problem for obtaining a driver's license.
If you are color blind, it is a congenital disorder that will never get better. As a rule, those affected cannot distinguish between red and green because they cannot see the colors, they do not differ from other colors. With a driver's license, seeing colors at traffic lights is important, but there are no objections to getting the driver's license.
This must be taken into account when obtaining a driver's license
- Even if it goes without saying, remember where the red and green lights are at the traffic lights. You will not see it glowing directly, but you will definitely perceive which color is currently active.
- For your own safety, keep a sufficient distance from the vehicle in front of you and concentrate on the traffic in order to prevent rear-end collisions.
- Pay attention to the third brake light in the rear window of the person in front. This shines more intensely than the one on the car itself.
- Driving can be very difficult, especially in the dark, as you cannot see the red lights of the person in front. To be on the safe side, you should keep a greater distance here than during the day.
You did not pay attention for a moment and at the same time, like the car, you are in the lane ...
Color blind - worth knowing
- If you want to make a truck or a passenger transport ticket, the color blindness is not a problem, but the anomaly quotient can only be 0.5. The ophthalmologist will have to examine you and confirm this.
- There is absolute color blindness, but as a rule these people cannot drive themselves because they only have 10% eyesight during the day.
- Many people have a weakness of green or red. In this case, a lot is easier because you cannot perceive only one color properly.
- If you are color blind, it does not mean that you cannot perceive the colors red and green at all, unfortunately you only notice them when they are particularly intense. A traffic light is not intense enough, a shining brake light on the rear window usually is.
If you are color blind you can get your driver's license, but you need to focus more on driving.
