That's as scary as a hearing person who has to turn to talk to you, and gesture with both hands, while driving. The interstate was straight, and she still managed to veer off the road 5 times. We threatened to take the keys away from her, then wouldn't talk. At the gas stop, thankfully not too far away, we did take the keys.

Where I wish everyone knew ASL - on airboats. Of course, I'm not riding airboats now.
