driving with a cast - legal?
Just had a non-healing fracture in my ankle casted yesterday, and heard something from the cast tech that made me wonder. I hope someone here might have further clarification on the topic.
Cast tech told me to drive very carefully because if I am pulled over or in an accident, because I have a cast on my ankle, I will be presumed to be at fault/guilty of an infraction.
The cast is on my left ankle, I drive an automatic and the cast in no way interferes with my driving. I'm not on pain pills or any medication which might alter my ability to drive.
Has anyone ever heard of a law presuming guilt/fault because of a cast, or did this woman just have a vivid imagination? I live in Pennsylvania, FWIW.
