If the person obtains a driver's license, he or she is legally allowed to drive.
Given that there are various levels of Down syndrome, the ability to pass the testing requirements will vary from person to person. They will have to pass the requisite tests for their jurisdiction. Many tests allow for help for those individuals that have problems reading, due to disabilities or language issues.
They may be required to have a statement from their physician that there are no impairments to their ability to function as a safe driver. Most states in the US have established a review board for medical conditions.
