  • Blood Pressure & Heart Disease: Unmonitored hypertension (≥180/110 mmHg), a recent heart event, stroke, uncontrolled angina, or an implanted defibrillator lacking approval.
  • Diabetes: Unmanaged diabetes with recurrent episodes of low blood sugar or complications (neuropathy, visual issues) hindering safe driving.
  • Sleep Apnea & Respiratory Issues: Neglected obstructive sleep apnea leading to daytime fatigue, or critical lung disease affecting oxygen levels.
  • Neurological Disorders: Epilepsy/seizure conditions (unless exempt), conditions triggering sudden unconsciousness, vertigo, or uncontrolled tremors.
