No, the examiner acused me of having an intelectual disability, just because I'm autistic.
This is for a regular drivers license, yea? The only way those evaluations make sense to me is if you were getting some kind of license to race on closed circuits/tracks.
Sorry you gotta deal with it, regardless!
Yes it was a regular driving test.
as i stated above. He is an idiot, say straight up to him : "you do not know what an intellectual disability is" and, to their next sentence, answer that you'll be damn fine with lawsuit.
Autism not being described as an intellectual disability in the entire field of medicine that's close to an autowin
I will never see him again, so it isn't worth it. I will just easily pass the psychological tests.
If I sued him, he would probably win, since he could actually afford a lawsuit.
