Why should you take care driving past the man with the cane?

Explanation: It's not always possible to spot a pedestrian with a disability. But when a person is using a white cane, they're probably visually impaired. There are two types of white cane

• A plain white cane means the person is blind or visually impaired
• A white cane with a red band means the person is blind and deaf or hearing impaired

You should always drive carefully where there are pedestrians, but take extra care when you see someone who is disabled. Be patient as they may not be able to see or hear you and they may be slow crossing the road.
