"Over the years I've had so many fine tickets that I can't even count them all," he said. "But I have to drive to support the whole family. Driving is the only skill I have."
To prove that he was capable of driving a lorry, He entered many driving competitions and in 2002 was featured on television setting a record for driving a truck on treacherous mountain roads. He became well known and earned the nickname the 'Handless Driving King', but his local traffic department still refused to issue him a licence. Last year, China relaxed its regulations to allow some people with disabilities to drive - but He was still deemed too badly handicapped to drive.
"There's discrimination against disabled people in driving vehicles. Actually disabled people often drive very safely," he complained. "Disabled people have strong safety awareness as they don't want to have further damage to their body. There's no absolutely connection between accidents and body disability."

In his opinion. I highly doubt his reflexes are as sharp as someone who has a full set of arms.
If this happened when he was 9, you'd think that he would have cultivated some other skills. Isn't this kind of like a blind man deciding he's going to become an art critic and then complaining when it's pointed out that he might not be the best person for the job?
