[QUOTE="Phoenix55, post: 1470262, member: 242273"] Like [USER=101136]@Jaylee[/USER] I am no legal eagle but here are few thoughts. If you were following all the requirements for driving with type 1 and your surgeon said that you were OK to drive it is up to the prosecution to prove otherwise. Were the police called?

If it is someone else who was injured, and probably lost time at work so they may be in the position of having to prosecute because of their employer wanting to recover the cost, then the police should have examined the site and noted any fault in the road surface.
