Was placed out of service.

He would also hear the tire blow with 1 hearing aid in, or while wearing earbuds. And if you somehow don't hear a tire blow you would feel it unless you have no observation of anything around you.
That is a bs violation and you can't compare that to glasses

 

It is in the rules for driver medical qualifications. Cannot meet them, no drive. Simple as that.

 

Or get a waiver.

 

If he had a waiver, would not be out of service for violation of the rules.

 

Really? I just thought it was a wicked bass drop on the new Black Keys album.

 

Huh what did he say

 

I'm deaf in one ear and can't hear out of the other! Haha

 

How is it you can drive a truck if you are completely deaf but have to have a hearing aid if you are partial?

 

Any out of service matters. but they won't make a big deal of it as long as it's not a log book violation. most company's are hard up for drivers and they will over look anything except log book out of service.
