It will change your life just going to the grocery store. You can get a weeks groceries in one visit. I had to go 3 years once, when I had 5 cars. 2 in the garage every time I opened the door and 3 in the street teasing me every time I looked out the windows.

Colorado is 1 year and they only ask, "have you had any seizures in the last year?" I didn't drive 3 years because I knew it was not the thing to do. I took a lot of buses (3 days of groceries in your arms max when nobody was delivering groceries) and $cabs$ when the weather was bad because the nearest bus stop was 2 miles, and I wasn't feeling too well those 3 years, so great fun. That was 15 years ago. The insurance does not ask, and I didn't ask if they could find out if they went looking. My car is 20 years old, good shape but insurance around $40 a month, not full coverage.

My seizures I am very fortunate to get enough of a heads-up with or I wouldn't be driving. Even if on the interstate I can take the next exit or pull over as far as possible on the shoulder, right tires in the grass, and wait. State patrol will stop to talk to you if you're only 12-24" from the white line, because you are considered too close and a hazard for cars drifting too close. I'm also fortunate to not have had state patrol stop to talk to me because I can do cartwheels but not talk coherently enough to have a conversation for about 60-90 seconds.
