143 older than 18 years epileptic patients have been considered under the concers of their driving licence. The 33,5% of them was already in hold it. Epilepsy was under different clinical forms. The majority of the subjects would suffer from generalized primary suizures, otherwise from partial fits, either elementar or complex. Subjects who already had the licence (37 over 75 men and 15 over 68 women) were presenting most scanty crisis, or since one year had non suffered from any at all. The frequency of crisis was very low for all the patients who had presented epilepsy before beingin permitted to drive; no question had been raised for them. Subjects without licence (25 men over 42 and 18 women over 53) had not been permitted to drive because of their illness. This group was mainly composed by patients either suffering from epilectic cerebropaty from very frequent fits, or from both. It is maintained as reasonable that italian laws conform to those within other E.E.C. countries for what concerns driving licence for epileptics; these patients, whether controlled, are assumed as well capable as accountable in mastering their condition, even when driving.
