Driven to Despair - Report on DVLA medical section

Spooky558:
I’ve reapplied for my licence that I surrendered for medical reasons in 2006. I reapplied for it on the 21st of May this year. It’s now over 5 months and all they will tell me is that it’s in a queue and that if I feel fit and my GP agrees, then I can drive under section 88 of the RTA 1988. But who is going to employ me without a licence, and what about my DCPC?

They’re a major pain in the backside. They need to realise that they are having adverse affects on people, they are stopping us working.

You are right, they do need to realize the pain and suffering they have caused, not just to lorry drivers, (or ex) like ourselves, but this could have affected a much wider scope of people as well. Keep watching this thread, plans are being made :wink:
