This bill changes how South Dakota handles driver's licenses for people with medical conditions like seizures or blackouts. Instead of automatically denying licenses to these applicants, the state can now issue temporary permits if a doctor confirms the condition is controlled by medication and the person is under ongoing medical care. The temporary permit can be reviewed every six months until the applicant goes twelve months without an episode.
