hypoglycemia unawareness and driving safety

Hypoglycemia unawareness refers to a condition in which individuals with diabetes experience a decrease in their ability to recognize and sense the symptoms of low blood sugar (glucose) levels. This can be problematic for driving safety as it increases the risk of hypoglycemic episodes while operating a vehicle, potentially leading to impaired cognitive function, coordination, and decision-making abilities that can endanger self and others on the road.
