Are you Dyslexic?

Dyslexic drivers have 30% slower reaction times than normal.
This compares to 10% slower for a drunk driver just over the legal limit.

    That's totally uncalled for. My son is dyslexic too and I don't see anything wrong with a bit of fun or a lighthearted comment about it, in fact that's what helps a lot in life, seeing the lighter side of things.

    Be nice here or don't post at all.
