NC DMV PROBLEM
Tue, 10/10/2006 - 22:10this is my problem i had an accident while driving that did not involve me having a seizure however i was knocked out by the impact i told the paramedics when they arrived i had a seizure disorder and they let the emergency room doctor no that and while i was in the hospital i had a seizure because i had not taken my medication due to what was going on at the time now dmv was notfied and i had to submit a medical evaluation to them and the admin discharge summary from where i was in the hospital.
So my question is has any one else been through this and how did it turn out and if your license got suspended for how long and how did you get them back any advice please?
