I have a license. My PN hasn't affected my driving other than over long distances I can become a bit uncomfortable just from sitting that long in the same position.
If I thought my PN would affect my ability to drive safely I wouldn't drive. But because of all the garbage one has to go through to get a license (Thank you Homeland Security

) I won't let mine lapse, ever. They'll get it back from me when they pry it from my cold dead fingers.
