I don't. His dumbass would eventually get someone else dead. My dumbass just perpetually gets ratios wrong in factorio and has a tendency to hyperfixate - my smart-ass realized my ADHD is likely to get myself killed driving, so I have never gotten myself a driver's license.
Are you my mathematician friend?
This is unlikely though being bad at rudimentary math is a dead ringer for a mathematician.
He's the only person I've met that won't drive for his ADHD, I guess there are two!
I highly recommend anyone with ADHD drive standard if they're ever in a position where they have to learn how to drive. It forces you to focus on driving and keeps your hands busy. I used to be the same way, but I had to start driving or become homeless so I've been driving standard ever since.
I uh, would clarify that I by no means consider ADHD a disqualifier from a license, I simply don't personally have confidence in my ability.
I used to feel the exact same way. I avoided driving until I was in my late 20's but it's a lot easier than you think. Drive sober and pay attention to everyone around you and you get used to it really quickly.
