Who is prohibited from carrying a white cane while walking on public streets?

The correct answer is that a person who is not disabled is prohibited from carrying a white cane while walking on public streets. The white cane is specifically a tool designed for individuals who are visually impaired or blind, serving multiple purposes: it helps in navigation, enhances safety by signaling to others that the person may have a vision impairment, and acts as a guide to detect obstacles in the environment.

The law recognizes the importance of allowing individuals who genuinely need assistance to carry a white cane, which signifies their need for consideration and caution from others. Therefore, those who are not disabled may not carry a white cane, as doing so could mislead others about their ability to navigate independently and create confusion regarding their needs on the roadway.
