I got this by goggling the subject on the National Autistic Society-Driving.

The NAS Autism Help line occasionally gets asked about the rights of people with autism in relation to learning to drive. As autism is a spectrum disorder it is impossible to say that people with autism either should or should not be allowed to drive. Some people with autism may find this skill extremely difficult to grasp, while others will be highly competent drivers.
In most cases "yes." The answer really depends on the individual. There are different types of autism spectrum disorders and individuals with autism range from very low functioning intellectually to those with average intelligence. Those with Asperger's often have above average intelligence. Those with autism spectrum disorders also range from very involved (ex. those with severe sensory processing issues and rituals that could interfere with life activities such as driving) to those with very subtle behavioral traits. Driving is very achievable for individuals with autism spectrum disorders who have the ability to learn to drive and who do not have specific behavior patterns (like some forms of sensory seeking for example) that could interfere with driving.
People with high-functioning autism, known as Asperger's Syndrome, may be able to drive cars.
Yes, of course - autistic people are just as capable of getting a driving licence as neurotypical people.
Yes, I know I do.
I have dyspraxia and yes it does affect math
Harry Potter the character does not have dyspraxia, the actor who played him Daniel Radcliffe does. Radcliffe has not discussed his dyspraxia much in public, but he did mention that he struggles with simple tasks such as tying his shoelaces. His publicist stated that Radcliffe only has mild dyspraxia. Not a lot is known about dyspraxia and those with it tend to find ways to adapt to the tasks they find difficult.
no
no
Yes he does.He has said he only has minor dyspraxia.He said he has all but learnt to control it over the past few years.Daniel Radcliffe has stated that he has this neurological impairment.he doesn't drive, ride a bike, swim, and he has difficulty with fine motor skills.I`ve seen him run, ( December Boys), he is someone sluggish.He also has difficulty with focusing and following during interviews.Dyspraxia is a neurological condition that affects all motor and sensory skills.For info on dyspraxia visit:What is Dyspraxia?( What_is_dyspraxia)more info on dyspraxia how to look for it in others and other aspects of help you can visit the dyspraxia foundation site who do a brilliant job on keeping us informed.( http://www.dyspraxiafoundation.org.uk )
There is no definitive evidence to suggest that Albert Einstein had dyspraxia. He demonstrated exceptional cognitive abilities in physics and mathematics, which may have overshadowed any motor coordination difficulties commonly associated with dyspraxia.
The answer is yes, you can. Having Dyspraxia does not mean you have to be discluded from activities such as ten pin bowling, snooker or pool. I myself have Dyspraxia and have enjoyed going to bowling and pool on many occasions, although I am not always that good at winning. I can still enjoy myself though.
Well he has dyspraxia
yes you can. So long as you are good enough with balance and the physical side of things like the running driving ext. (this is not determined by how server you have dyspraxia) i have server dyspraxia and i can drive better than most other people INC diggers/cars/bikes/tractors ext. i can also run 6 mile plus and ride 26 mile plus on a bike. there is no reason i couldn't do this job the fact i have dyspraxia would just mean i would be 100% more determined and more likely to do a better job than many others. there is absolutely no reason why not and i have spoke to one dyspraxic who was a police officer. THERE IS ALWAYS HOPE :)
He admitted to being diagnosed with Dyspraxia.
Albert Einstein, Bill Gates, Cher, Hans Christian Anderson, Thomas Edison...
Boys are more likely to have dyspraxia than girls due to genetic and brain development differences. Boys tend to have a higher prevalence of neurodevelopmental disorders in general, which may contribute to this disparity. Additionally, there may be gender-specific social and environmental factors that also play a role.
