I was wondering:
How does this affect your motor skills?
And does it affect your driving? |

Hi
yes and yes - 
Motor skills - very clumsy!
Driving difficulty - judging space - especially when you drive on the road judging the space around you - I drive like my little car is a bus - giving my self a huge amount of space around every one.

No problem driving, or most anything else, either, but I have this maddening problem with leaving words out when I write. Drives me nuts.

Crystal,
another double "yes"
Motor skills: As a young child, difficulty with learning cursive writing, and at various times very tiny and inconsistently-placed letters, trouble with staying on the line and writing in rows when using un-lined paper;
difficulty w/learning to ride bike, playground games, learning to drink to through straw and put gloves on.
Issues with spatial orientation ongoing, affecting things like motor skills, processes involving multiple steps.
Driving:
issues w/reading maps, compass directions, sequences of instructions. See pictures in my head and have to translate that to the "typical" verbal instructions understood by <some hearing> people in situations like the car dealership shuttle driver taking me home while car is being fixed, and so forth.
getting lost while driving - have sense of direction but again that doesn't always assist me in finding someplace
learned to drive when I was 22, driving test took multiple attempts. |

Dear CrystalWSU,
I'll answer, too,... just to make the answers you get 'representative'. My driving is fine. My motor skills are fine. I usually don't like to listen to music or 'radio talk' while driving. If I listen to anything while driving, it will usually be while driving on a long, flat, lonely stretch of road. Otherwise, the music or 'radio talk' affects me as an 'annoyance'. - jus' |
