Medical Considerations
Sight
Unrestricted License
You must have at least 20/40 vision in one eye, with or without glasses.
Restricted License
You must have at least 20/50 vision in at least one eye.
Hearing
There are no driving restrictions for deaf or hearing-impaired drivers.
Seizures
Montana has no seizure-free timetable.
If you answer on your driver license application or license renewal form that you suffer from a medical condition that may cause seizures, blackouts, or loss of consciousness, you must provide the date when this condition last occurred and have your doctor complete a medical evaluation form. The Motor Vehicle Division (MVD) will then decide whether to issue you a license based on your doctor's report.
Aging Drivers
Once you reach 75, you must renew your license every four years.
Reporting an Incompetent Driver
Call the MVD's Medical Unit at (406) 444-4536 and request review form DES-1004.
Testing Accommodations for Drivers with Disabilities
Contact your local driver exam station for information on testing accommodations.
