It's not the pupil size that causes the problem, it's the 'bleaching' of the light sensitive cells. -- Catman MIB#14 SKoGA#6 TEAR#4 BOTAFOF#38 Apostle#21 COSOC#3 Tyger, Tyger Burning Bright (Remove rust to reply) Alfa 116 Giulietta 3.0l (Really) Sprint 1.7 75 2.0 TS Triumph Speed Triple: Black with extra black bits www.cuore-sportivo.co.uk
No, I did ask an optician about this. Stereo vision is ineffective beyond a few feet - hence parachutists' "ground rush", for example. I think one judges greater distances, such as needed for driving, using a combination of relative size, movement and parallax. If you think about it, the stereo effect works by comparing different images. At longer distances, given our eyes' spacing, the images are so similar that there is simply not enough difference between the two images to work with. -- -Pip TL1000R The Quietly Booming Banana Guzzi Quota 1000: The Black Tractor YZ250: Rough 'n' Tumble Mongrel DT125: The Rust(ic) Garden Ornament
And if you take medication that says "may affect depth perception" then ride a motorcycle through Brighton buses *suddenly* get bigger. I ignored the bit about avoid alcohol as well. Great gag!
Just to make it clear - as I don't want the SirTonyFrog on my arse - I didn't ride the bike after drinking alcohol.

One lunchtime a girl came into the local with a 17mm spanner in her back pocket. Dunno whether it was a fashion accessory or she knew how to handle a big tool but it was a curiously attractive sight.

17mm is a woman's size. I regularly use a 3/4" drive ratchet wrench & 30mm socket totaling 6.5 Kg at work. It's a bastard if I have to use it one-handed at arm's length. It's for bolting stuff down to the surface plates so it won't move while we test it.
