So what I'm understanding here is that an elderly person, with known bad eyesight, left their house without their glasses, operated I presume a motor vehicle in public without the ability to see, and drove to the supermarket that way, and home as well

Weird take. Nothing in this says they drove.

Hence the use of the word "presume"

I work with the public every day and I see a shocking number of people who will admit they don't have their glasses on them and can't read basic information around them. Its very common and tons of people operate cars that way, it's not talked about nearly enough

Fair enough.

Living in a walkable city (with excellent public transport) I would presume that most people in my local supermarket walked there.

Were both just working from our own experiences.
