Age 65. Have been driving since 1970. Used to drive lumber truck and coal truck deliveries in a 2 ton dump truck. Later commuted an hour each way daily for work to NY City area. Developed seizures at age 63 due to migraine headache issues that have evolved over time. After having 4 separate incidents driving and going into seizures without accidents I decided to voluntarily quit driving before I kill myself and or somebody else. My license is not restricted, yet. NY State requires one solid year seizure free without incident before going back to driving. I think my driving days are over. I am retired and stuck at home and it drives me crazy. Like my military time, one adapts step by step as one encounters negative issues and finds a way to live with the circumstances. Have not been technically diagnosed that these incidents are seizure or epilepsy but Keppra has not stopped them totally. Seems to be Simple Partial Onset Epilepsy.
