Hey all,
Everyone has been great on here so far. I apologize if this topic is already lsited somewhere but I couldn't find it.
I am a Massachusetts driver. I had a seizure on Feb 14th, after a MRI, Blood work and a 48 hour EEG. My neurologist said some abnormal brain waves were detected coming from my left side of my brain. I don't remember the exact area. He told me the law is I can't drive for 6 months and put me on some meds. I have had 2 seizures and they have been a couple years apart and now I am medicated as of recently. I am currently abiding by the 6 month rule. However, I am suppose to self report myself. Which I have not done yet.
I want to self report because I just might be able to get my Dr to say I can drive. Massachusetts has an exception clause, although I am not 100%
My questions are if anyone would be so kind to answer are:
1. If you report yourself, does your insurance go up?
2. Are there any legal ramifications if I don't report myself? Like I said, I am abiding to the 6 month rule as of right now. I just really don't want to go through the hassle of getting it back.
I just want to know if there are any Mas drivers that have gone through this process and can they offer any advice.
Oh, one more thing. My neurologist is in Rhode Island. Massachusetts states (where my license is) it has to be a Mass licensed Dr to fill out the paper work.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
