???????
I have a friend with epilepsy and he cant even get a drivers license -
If the guy is on meds with a completely 100% flawless track record of 100% suppression of any seizures whatsoever, I'd say UPS is in the wrong on this. If anything other than that is the case, that's completely insane.

I'm glad to see this driver won. Good for him challenging them.
-
i understand this driver needs his job , but has he thought about what if he has a seizure and kills someones child ,whife ,husband , grandmother ,grandfather, girlfriend, boyfriend,cousin,preacher,teacher,etc?????
does he care??? or is money more important???? I'm truly sorry this person is sick!!!!!! -
And you need your doctor to sign off
The problem is medication becomes less effective with time, depending on the person. -
But then, he might be a moron as well... -
I feel for the guy needing a job and all.. but if i were subject to seizures... I wouldn't want to drive... I mean could you imagine a driver going into seizures # 70mph in a 4 lane traffic situation? That would be insane.

Shaky hands are not good.
Grand Mal seizure at 70 mph would be a real mess to say the least. -
Its just a massacre waiting to happen IMHO.
