In other words - always caption the videos.
-- a comment by a police officer
A police officer said, when dealing with deaf
drivers at night during traffic stops:
do not shine a flashlight in my face because
it prevents me from understanding what the
deaf driver is trying to say
Interestingly enough, police officers have also
been advised not to shine flashlights in
deaf drivers' faces. Doesn't work both ways!
