VISUAL LEAD TIME

Driving a vehicle is much the same targeting task as firing a gun or piloting an aircraft. You look through the target not at it when you fire a gun. Pilots use the horizon as their target when flying. You must look a minimum of THIRTY SECONDS ahead of your vehicle on urban as well as highway roads.

The best drivers are those that observe the horizon, day and night, and scan up, down, left and right in a constant scan using their central zone vision. When shortened visual lead times exist, they rely upon their imagination and memory to plan the path to the ever distant horizon.

How can a person with epilepsy learn how to drive?

As a seizure can happen at any time, someone who is driving at the time is obviously a potential risk. Different countries have different laws relating to driving and epilepsy. Someone who has any history of epilepsy is often barred for life from driving something like a bus and there is no way they could ever get a pilot license. For a car, it is often a case that they have to be clear of seizures for a period of time, like a year or two, before they will be allowed to get a driving license. A truck being a larger vehicle, poses a larger potential risk on a road, so the law would be stricter, but that depends on where someone is. It differs from one place to another. You would need to check with the laws where you are.
