The Impact of ADHD on Driving

On this week's episode we're going to talk about the impact ADHD has on driving.

I mean this really shouldn't be a big surprise if we just stop and think about it given the core symptoms of ADHD include problems with being distracted, hyperactivity and impulsiveness.
