Man that’s an unfortunate situation, but at what point does a diabetic that can go into shock should not be behind a wheel? Epileptics already get barred from driving after an episode, maybe we need to broaden these types restrictions.

if you have a medical condition and you drive, you're taking other peoples lives in your hands. I have been cleared to drive for a long time, but it would not be right as I know I'm never 100% in control behind the wheel. anything less is accepting responsibility for the outcome.
