A man who claims to be driving and who got his Kenyan DL the normal way should never ask such a stupid question.

You don't have to be rude to proof you are wise. I never talked of DL. Even if you got a DL, there are decisions you can make on yourself for your own safety.

By law those suffering from epilepsy do not qualify for driving licenses since they'd be a risk to themselves and the general public. ......as today's case proves. Imagine he got the seizure hurtling down langata rd and then he gets into your lane head on.... .

He should not have been driving in the first place. If you have an epileptic bro/siz/child/aunt/grandpa etc, you would never be comfortable having them drive.

Waciku you are now an elder and father,let kids pass u don't have to labor

Very th uote]


It's not such a dumb question to ask. Indeed in some countries there are regulations governing such cases. In the UK, there are stringent measures to acquire lorry DL if you're diabetic or epileptic, including mandatory incident-free durations before licensing.

Though not their fault, they still pose a danger to people around them. Imagine if they're driving and it happens, they're no longer in control of the car and it ploughs into a crowded bus stop

What happens here, like a lot of things, is not up to standard. That should worry you. Next time you're cruising down the road, or even standing by the road, look at that those cars speeding alongside and pray they don't have an attack.

The threat is very real

Even in absence of a law, common-sense consideration would dictate that you should not be behind the wheel if you have the chance of getting such an attack. You could kill yourself any minute, and kill others too.
