Answers:
It depends what is causing your visual acuity to be 20/40, but if it is simple myopia, then yes, you would probably benefit from glasses for seeing distance , for activities like driving, movies, TV!.!.!.ect!.

At 20/40 you are at the limit of being allowed to drive without glasses, but night vision may not be so great!.

You need an actual eye exam to determine what prescription you need, and then the Dr!. will be able to advise you more after it is done!.

"need" isn't quite the right word!.!.!.
Assuming the reduced acuity is simply from a missing Rx,
Footprintz has it exactly right: "probably benefit from"

Even if you were just legal without, you'd be be safer driving with glasses*!.
Watching live sport, cinema, and television would be more enjoyable!.
So, even though it need not mean wearing them all the time at all, there are likely to be times when glasses are "useful"!.

Assuming it is a glasses problem: some people have 20/40 and glasses won't help!. Cataract, corneal scarring, macular disease!.!.!.

* "Just inside the legal minimum" isn't ideal for eyesight or tyre tread!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
