HB1079 changes the rules for when the Department of Public Safety can deny or restrict driver's licenses for people with medical conditions like seizures or blackouts. Instead of automatically denying licenses until someone goes 12 months without an episode, the bill allows the department to issue a temporary permit if a doctor confirms the condition is controlled by medication and the person is under ongoing medical care, with the permit reviewed every six months.
