Hi all.
I’m new to trucknet, not yet qualified but hoping to be in the next few months.
I have a congenital heart problem which I had an operation for when I was 10 years old. I am 34 now and have no ill effects from this and as far as I’m concerned I am in pretty good health. I go for check ups every couple of years.
The dvla has issued me my lgv licence provisionally for 1 year. Once I’ve got the licence should I be ok unless something drastic happens? Or will I always be worried that the dvla could take my licence away at any time sending my (hopefully) new career and money spent training down the toilet?
Does anyone have any experiences or opinions on this sort of stuff or is in a similar boat themselves or know someone who is? Any comments are appreciated.
Dont worry about the short licence DVLA will send you the forms next year for a medical which they will pay for by the way not like most of us that have to pay
It is more of a just in case something does happen they are seen to be doing what is necessary
There is a poster on here who has MS works full time who again get a short licence but every year she renews hers without a problem
Maybe post this in here
Thanks Animal, I hope you’re right.
