        Driving is more than just transportation—it's a lifeline to independence, employment, healthcare, and connection. But for the nearly 3.4 million Americans living with epilepsy, driving privileges can be complicated by varying state laws and medical requirements. In March 2025, the American Academy of Neurology (AAN), the American Epilepsy Society (AES), and the Epilepsy Foundation of America (EFA) released an updated consensus position statement on seizures and driving safety. These new guidelines aim to balance public safety with fair treatment of people with epilepsy. This important update will guide our advocacy efforts as we work to improve state-level driving policies for people impacted by seizures.
