@ Washiku Are you Ok? The above question is unlike you.


Very th uote]
Shame on you Shame on you

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 realSad Sad

Very thick!


Okay. Maybe am thick on this one, but all along I have assumed an epileptic person should not drive for their own safety and safety of other road users. They can never predict when it can happen. About DL, if you get your DL when fine and then you unfortunately lose your eye sight, would you be allowed to continue driving simply coz its not written somewhere?

I share the same sentiments. Assume you are travelling in a bus and someone told you that your bus driver is epileptic. Would you just sit there and take a nap throughout the journey?

Morally, that is. But its not a requirement as far as Kenya Traffic Act is concerned.


It IS a requirement in the traffic act! Seems you got your DL from river rori.

Lets see how thick I am, as claimed by First Class holders.

Kenya:

http://www.kta.co.ke/doc...The%20Traffic%20Act.pdf

Specific declarations:

Traffic Act CAP 403 Sec 34 "Application For Driving Or Provisional Licence Or For Endorsement Of Existing
Licence"


"(C) DECLARATION AS TO PHYSICAL FITNESS OF APPLICANT
9. Do you certify that you are not suffering from epilepsy or from sudden attacks of
disabling giddiness or fainting (Answer “Yes” or “No”).
10. Can you read at a distance of 25 metres in good daylight "



Declaration by Applicant to be an instructor

"I declare that I am not subject to epilepsy and do not suffer from
fits; and that my physique, vision, hearing and bodily and mental
fitness are such as to warrant the issue to me of a driving instructor’s
licence."



Some Other countries:

https://www.gov.uk/epilepsy-and-driving

http://www.epilepsysocie...s-epilepsy#.VCD-5vmSxSE

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.

@kimaiyo should cancel @impunity's river road license and order he goes back to driving school ASAP. Seems he never filled Traffic Act Form VII (Application for DL), neither has he ever seen it in his life.

Sio kushtuka, I was so sure its there. I thought maybe the driving school I went to was fake and had its own rules. Now I know who never filled the forms. Hizi DL za back door ni mbaya sana.

When you applied for your datsun 100 dl was there a column asking you if you suffer from epilepsy?
Some questions should not come from some kind of mouths!
