No.

The answer to this is individual to the patient and it depends on the severity and frequency of the epileptic attacks. This can only be ascertained by a qualified medical Doctor whos decision is then applied to local law.

The biggest problem with illnesses that can potentially be dangerous in cars such as diabetics and epileptics is that, even if they are allowed to drive, most insurance companies will charge an unaffordable premium on insurance.

Anyone with Epilepsy needs to consult a doctor before driving any vehicle, especially large ones. If they had a seizure while driving it would obviously be a major risk. There are always laws around driving and Epilepsy, no matter where you are. Find out about the law where you are, but do talk to a doctor first.

How long do you have to wait for your drivers license if your epileptic?

In the State of Florida, you must be under a doctors care. The doctor must certify you have been seizure free for six months. Then, he or she sends that certification to the department of motor vehicles. The department of motor vehicles contacts you and sends you a permission to drive. Then you can get your drivers license. You can then go to the driver's license department. There are certain types of truck drivers licenses you can never get due to Federal Law. Do not sign up for an over the road truck driving class.
