    Blind driver caught again

    TALLINN (Reuters) - An Estonian man who was caught driving a car even though he is blind has been at it again, police said on Monday, and this time he faces jail.

    Oddly Enough

    Police first arrested the man, 20, a week ago.

    "We arrested the same blind man driving his car again on Saturday in the town of Torvandi, near Tartu (in southern Estonia)," said Marge Kohtla, a spokeswoman for Tartu police district.

    "He was drunk. There were three people in the car with him giving him instructions."

    She said police wanted the court to jail the man for 30 days and confiscate his car.
