Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT)
Now has a Medical reporting link on their website:
|Pennsylvania’s Medically Impaired Driver Law |
|For years, Pennsylvania law has required health care personnel to report to PennDOT those drivers under their care whose driving|
|skills may be affected by a medically related condition. Each year, health care personnel play a significant role in PennDOT’s |
|effort of removing medically unsafe drivers from our highways - a very real public health and safety issue. |
|According to Section 1518 of the Pennsylvania Vehicle Code all health care personnel, i.e. all physicians, podiatrists, |
|chiropractors, physician assistants, certified registered nurse practitioners and other persons authorized to diagnose or treat |
|disorders and disabilities defined by PennDOT’s Medical Advisory Board, must report to PennDOT within 10 days, in writing, the |
|full name, address, and date of birth of any patient 15 years of age or older, who has been diagnosed as having a condition that|
|could impair his or her ability to safely operate a motor vehicle. However, reports are not required if the condition is |
|expected to last less than 90 days; for example, a broken leg would not need to be reported to PennDOT. |

|Scroll down to the diabetes section |
|Diabetes |§ 83.5(a)(1) states that a person who has unstable diabetes mellitus leading to severe hypoglycemic reactions or |
|Mellitus |symptomatic hyperglycemia will not be qualified to drive, unless there has been a continuous period of at least 6 |
|(DL-122) |months free from a disqualifying episode. |
| | |
| |Individuals who have had a disqualifying episode and are eligible for restoration must submit to follow-up |
| |diabetic examinations, which include an HbA1C test as well as a vision screening at 6, 12, 24, and finally 48 |
| |month intervals. Diabetic examinations may be required more frequently if recommended by the treating heath care |
| |provider. |
| | |
| |However, a waiver from disqualification may be granted if an individual has been previously free from severe |
| |hypoglycemic reactions or symptomatic hyperglycemia for the preceding 6 months and the subsequent severe |
| |hypoglycemic reaction or symptomatic hyperglycemia occurred |
| |while the individual was under the treating health care provider’s care, |
| |during or concurrent with a nonrecurring transient illness, or |
| |toxic ingestion or metabolic imbalance. |
| |The above waiver will only be granted if the treating health care provider submits written certification |
| |indicating it is a temporary condition or isolated incident not likely to recur. |
