I know what you are thinking. What the hell is someone who clearly can't see getting into the driver's seat of a car for? 

Well, Sam is visually and hearing impaired, and so driving is not usually an option for her. However, every year Sam gets behind the wheel for her driving fix, thanks to the North East Sensory Service. 
Sam believes that driving is a symbol of independence, and not being able to drive is something that she has always struggled with. But knowing she can do some driving once a year makes a big difference!
