Minnesota's Driver Evaluation Unit uses this two-page form to decide whether a driver who has lost consciousness or voluntary control, for example from seizures, syncope or a diabetic episode, is eligible to drive. The driver certifies the date of the last episode, and the physician gives an advisory opinion and sets a review interval.

Who completes it
