Re: DVLA revoked driving licence - any advice?
Smidge,
I am a little confused by your post. I agree with what you and everyone else has said about "if you are not safe to drive, do not drive"..and I too have to undergo the 3 year visual fields test. I hate it, realy, really hate it...but, I have never found the VLA or teh people doing the test anything other than professional and reasonable. The reason I hate the test, is becasue I worry it is going to tell me that my visoion has deterorated severly. I am vaguely aware that I can't see as wide a field of view as I could, pre laser treatment, but it happened so long ago, I seriously doubt I would notice any gradual changes.
Maybe I have been lucky...but I view it as a necessary, if unpleasant experience.
Know what you mean though...I used to live with a girl who only had one "working" eye...and she never told the DVLA...doesn't seem fair sometimes, but I would rather they tightened up on others rather than slackening off on diabetics.
