[QUOTE="sw11bloke, post: 378504, member: 59057"] I sent off my complete forms for my medical renewal last year in October. The DVLA sat on my application untill now. I kept calling them as my drivers had expired but they kept fobbing me off with the same excuse - that its with the medical team awaiting to be reviewed and that they could not give me a time frame and that they were currently working on applications dated 4 January!!!! Advice: Write to your local MP. I made an official complaint to my MP who called the DVLA. Within two days I had my renewed drivers license issued. I think people should start putting pressure on the DVLA. If you have not signed this petition yet, Please do. Its for a good cause in the fight against diabetic discrimination by the DVLA.
