Chris Goodman had 20 years of experience as a mechanic when he started to lose his sight. Now unable to drive, and legally blind, he is back on the job training to do both mechanics and business aspects in new ways.
He is able to tell a lot about what is wrong with a car by smell and sound and uses talking tools to assist him. He is also using the computer system to book appointments and accept payments.
