Study Shows That Young Adults Diagnosed With Severe Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder As Children Have More Driving Risks

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration sponsored a study to assess whether Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) diagnosed during childhood would be a risk factor for poorer driving performance during early adulthood. This Traffic Tech summarizes the findings of this study. Complete, updated, driving records were available for 113 severe ADHD young adults from the time they obtained their first license through age 25. The study shows that ADHD is a risk factor for poorer driving performance during early adulthood. Youth who displayed severe symptoms of ADHD as children were more likely than a comparison group to have been convicted of assorted moving and non-moving violations.

A Request for Discovery is an information request you would make to the prosecutor
Ask usually the District Attorney, for relevant information related to your case. If you were cited for speeding, you may want information on the kind of speed measurement device the officer used to clock your vehicle, or the training records for the officer that measured your speed. A simple written request, sent via registered mail to the District Attorney's office, is usually sufficient to exercise this inquiry.
