There are risks, and there are avoidable risks. A diabetic who is having problems is an avoidable risk. There is no excuse for them being behind the wheel until the problem is corrected. None.

If you're saying that this is a real nationwide problem with diabetics, then I am in favor of denying them driving licenses altogether.

And if you find out more accidents are caused by heart disease? Or people over the age of 65 / under the age of 18? Should we deny them driving rights as well?

Then we will have to deny licenses to all those over age 50 because of the risk of stroke/heart attack while behind the wheel.
