NFB Blind Driver

The National Federation of the Blind worked with engineers from Virginia Tech to create a car that can be driven by a person who is blind.  The car was debuted at the Daytona 50i0.  

This is a really great example of how the National Federation of the Blind works to break down barriers and societal stereotypes about the blind.  

Check out one of the many things that the National Federation of the Blind is doing to change what it means to be blind!
