Damn, USA Today with the hard-hitting, pull-no-punches investigative journalism that toppled a presidency! And totally not bullshit clickbait about a fender bender.

Such a bastion of American 5th-grade-reading-level journalism.

Shit like this can happen to anybody.

Yes, if you’re hauling ass over the 70 mph speed limit.

I didn't realize be was able to drive since his stroke.

Clearly he shouldn't be able to

It takes a lot to get your license revoked. I’d be surprised if this does it rather than just being a ding on his insurance rate.

My step mother is dying and the day she was diagnosed with a seizure causing condition they informed her they would call the DMV to let them know she shouldn’t be driving. I don’t know if they revoked it but they certainly implied that something was done that would cause her trouble if she got caught driving. Maybe they lied about it though, to scare her off driving, idk.

Catoblepas ,

Sorry to hear about your step mom. Yeah, seizures are definitely one of the things they will immediately revoke it over because no doctor wants the liability of telling you that it’s safe for you to drive. If it’s been well controlled for x months (varies by state) usually you can get the license back.

I have a relative that’s had seizures since childhood and on the rare occasion she has a seizure, it’s always another huge stressor to lose her license for at least 6 months on top of having had a breakthrough seizure. Completely necessary obviously, where she lives just absolutely isn’t built for people who can’t drive.
