Question: Is there a certain safe level for blood sugar for a
person that has diabetes? I know a high blood sugar level
affects being able to drive safely. Is there a certain level
where a ticket will be written if known by the State Patrol?
Answer: There is no level where a ticket would be written by the
Minnesota State Patrol. Of course, I am not a doctor, but I do
know that the blood sugar concentration or blood glucose level
is the amount of glucose (sugar) present in the blood. Blood
glucose monitoring is the main tool you have to check your
diabetes control. This check tells you your blood glucose level
at any one time. Even though there is no blood sugar level where
a ticket would be written, if an incident or a crash occurs
involving a diabetic loss of consciousness or voluntary control
and a trooper or any law enforcement officer investigates, a
request for an examination of the driver can be submitted to the
Driver and Vehicle Services – Driver Evaluation Unit. This can
be a very serious matter, and
