NEJM 324:22-26, 54-551991., Hansotia,P.&Broste,S.K., 1991

Article Abstract
We conclude that drivers with epilepsy or diabetes mellitus have slightly increased risks of traffic accidents as compared with unaffected persons. The increases in risk observed in our study were generally smaller than those in previous studies,and we believe they are not great enough to warrant further restrictions on driving privileges.
