Yeah it was the testers mistake, I called the FDOT after going to the eye doctor who told me as long as I can read any characters on the 20/40 line I meet federal guide lines FDOT confirmed this. Hopefully Prime knows this so I dont have to go throught this again. So if it helps anybody else here As long as you can read on the 20/40 line any characters not all you meet FEDERAL GUIDE LINES.
