Leitlinie: Driving is much safer for diabetics today - New German guideline makes driving safer for people with diabetes
The latest guideline, Diabetes and Road Traffic, reflects major advances in diabetes care. Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) and automated insulin systems now help prevent dangerous low blood sugar while driving. Studies show these tools have cut the risk of hypoglycaemia-related accidents significantly.
The updated guideline aims to improve safety and reduce discrimination. By relying on personalised risk evaluations and modern technology, people with diabetes can now drive and work with greater confidence. Employers and regulators are being urged to adopt these evidence-based changes.
