Otis is right: use your own test on your home eyechart.
Practice on distant signs... keep glasses in your pocket in case you need them for safety if you have a day when vison is not perfect when driving.
When you get to 20/20 and clearer with bates method, natural fluxuations to a little lower than 20/20 will still be legal, safe.
Whilst I can neither agree ot disagree with the point you are making I understand it. However, for my purpose what I am trying to achieve is a certain vision or better as assessed by an optometrist.
