Depends: It depends on both the nature of the seizures and the local driving regulations. Seizures that don't affect awareness, consciousness or muscle control may not impact driving. See the following link for state-by-state regulations and you should speak with your doctor. http://www.epilepsy.com/epilepsy/rights_driving.
