    The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration has received exemption requests from seven individuals who have epilepsy or related conditions. Normally, people with such medical conditions are prohibited from driving commercial vehicles interstate because of risks like seizures. However, these individuals have been seizure-free for many years and are taking or have stopped taking anti-seizure medication. If the exemptions are granted, these individuals would be allowed to drive commercial motor vehicles across state lines. The agency is asking for public comments on these requests by March 25, 2021.

    Simple Explanation

    The government is thinking about letting some people who have had seizures drive big trucks, like the ones that deliver stuff to different states, because they have been okay for a long time and take medicine for their condition. Before they decide, they want to hear what other people think about this idea.
