People with depression cannot obtain a driver's license. According to the 'Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses,' individuals with organic heart disease, epilepsy, Meniere's disease, vertigo, hysteria, paralysis agitans, mental illness, dementia, or neurological disorders affecting limb movement that hinder safe driving are not eligible to apply for a motor vehicle driving license.
