Bill overview
This bill modifies Michigan’s driver’s license regulations to provide exceptions to driver’s license suspension for individuals who have experienced epileptic seizures. Specifically, it adds section 309a, which allows the Secretary of State to suspend a license for at least six months after a seizure, but may reduce or waive this suspension period under certain medical circumstances, such as medication changes, specific seizure patterns, or acute illnesses. The bill also requires a physician’s statement to be submitted within 30 days of the last seizure to potentially shorten the suspension time.
