People without a history of seizures shouldn't be allowed to drive

The road was ultra slick, and many people fuck their car up on this curve in particular, they thought nothing of it. However it was bare bones insurance, only covers damages like if I hit someone else's property, so I got nothing. I don't drive anymore, voluntarily

Because it's a crazy idea.

Do you know what sub this is

I am sure they do, but most of the post that are popular on this sub often include an attempt at providing some reason.

I think we must be talking about different subs

Isn't it obvious.

Without a history of seizures you have no idea how likely you are to have a seizure. Since you never had one before therefore its an unknown unknown.

Where as someone who has seizures before the risk is a known unknown.

(Or he just stole the idea from the guy who posted people with seizures shouldn't be allowed to drive about an hour ago in this same sub and flipped it.)

Where I live, they aren't, at least not without a doctor's certificate stating they are on appropriate medication. The same applies to people with narcolepsy.
Failure to mention you have any medical condition that may affect your driving will void your insurance.

So just get put in a rear naked choke and get your license?

I actually see what your getting at...but what about brain autism, heart arrithmias, hypoglycemia.

I think your argument is that people who've had seizures are being treated or at least monitored and are thus less likely than an average person to have a seizure.

First of all, only the first part of that is correct.

And second of all as mentioned above there's a bunch of other possible conditions that could occurs suddenly and impair driving.
