"Can" and "Should" are two completely different questions. Can they? Yes, I suppose so. Should they? I'd consult a doctor first.

Honestly from my experience with people that have a class A licence for that, yeah, you could. I worked on a road department and some of those guys were crazy as hell. Most were normal, but enough were crazy that I hardly believe there is a test for it. They were always running off the road, one guy even fliped a dump truck he was driving on a straight, level road. That guy had some serious muscle twitches that kicked in at random, so thats probabaly how he did that. So yeah, I bet someone with bipolar disorder could do it too.

As long as your medications don't impair your driving ability, a person with Bipolar disorder should be able to do anything that a "normal" person does. Class A license, no prob. Pilot's license, I doubt it... If you are prone to hypomania, it might be to your benefit (long hours, little sleep...)!

Bipolar is difficult to diagnose. I would say yes, get your license!

Depends if it can be controlled and how bad it is.

Absolutly!
If they couldn't, then no one could because we all have mood swings.
