Epilepsy and driving regulations in Wisconsin.
Driving regulations in the state of Wisconsin have evolved. In 1987, changes in these regulations focused the problem on loss of consciousness and bodily control of drivers rather than on specific diagnostic entities such as epilepsy or diabetes mellitus. Current Wisconsin law encompasses loss of consciousness or events affecting bodily control, no matter what the cause. Current regulations balance individual needs with the needs of safety for society. Neurologists are encouraged to become involved to keep the process of regulation current with the dynamic changes in medical care and in transportation technology (e.g., air bags, roll bars, etc.).[1]References
