I recently discovered, that this could create some issues for me. I want to get diagnosed, but I’m concerned about how it will affect me in a legal sense. I was wondering if there’s a way, I can find out that information?
Edit: I am from Australia Currently, as it stands, retaining my drivers license post diagnosis, demands that I disclose my diagnosis, and do another test to prove I am fit to drive. This test costs $1,500. I have already started my assessment, and am doing my second session soon. I don’t want to not go through with it, because it is valuable to know for sure, that I am autistic. It may also give me accommodations, but it may be difficult to get depending on my support needs.
I’m diagnosed as Aspergers and I had no issue getting my driver’s license. Why? Because I didn’t mention it. The practical test instructor was somewhat nervous that I was adjusted to the speed limit and never went a little bit faster, but ultimately congratulated me on paying so much attention to all angles and directions. I met a woman recently whose boyfriend (also diagnosed as Aspergers) tried to get the license and wasn’t even allowed to take the practical test.
