From September 1, Russia will tighten the procedure for obtaining driver's licenses for people with diseases that affect interaction with the outside world, such as Rett syndrome or autism. This is expected to improve overall road safety by preventing people whose driving safety is questionable due to their diagnosis from driving.
Lawyer Konstantin Erokhin holds less positive views on this issue, believing that the changes may lead to negative consequences for drivers.
