Bruce, A seizure can happen any time. Also, The DOT can't take your
bike away, like the can strip you of your drivers' license.

I feel safer on my bike. Because, While I can't go on the highway(nor
do I want to), I can go a lot of places a car can't go, in addition to
the main roads. If I had a drivers' license, and had a seizure while
behind the wheel of a car, I would probably end up as a fatality. So
that is a risk I won't take.

Besides, Why are people who choose not to have a car, looked down upon.
When there is a major traffic jam, I can still get through on my bike,
while all the cars are stuck.
