There are different rules in different parts of the world. Generally, if someone has not had a seizure for a period of time, they will be allowed to drive. The amount of time specified will be different in different parts of the world. It could be anything from about 6 months to 2 years. It must be said that driving if you have epilepsy is a risk to the driver, any passengers and other road users, so someone with a history of epilepsy needs to be very careful and take good medical advice before deciding to drive.
