Commercial driver's licence downgrade upheld after applicant suffered a single nocturnal seizure.
The applicant appealed the Minister of Transportation's decision to downgrade his commercial driver's licence to a Class 'G' licence following a single nocturnal seizure.
The Licence Appeal Tribunal reviewed the medical evidence, including a neurologist's report and the CCMTA Medical Standards for Drivers, which require a commercial driver to have a consistent seizure pattern for at least 5 years.
The Tribunal found that the applicant suffers from a physical condition likely to significantly interfere with his ability to drive a commercial vehicle safely and confirmed the Minister's decision.
