[QUOTE="Oblomov, post: 691327, member: 35990"] So sorry this has happened to you. But this really is a very old issue. I lost mine , a number of years ago. Very similar. Just as the new laws were being implemented. DVLA later admitted their Doctors were applying the laws earlier than the laws were actually supposed to come into effect!!!!! And again this year, lost for a minor box ticking issue!! Both times I hired the world re-known Lawyer for driving - Philip Somarakis, who is beyond superb, and knows all the rules and all the big wigs at DVLA. He managed to get my licence back a lot quicker than I would have without him. He is worth EVERY Penny. EU directive is well known by British Diabetic Association and they too have given up trying to get this issue addressed. There have been a number of high profile other petitions, I signed one for a young man under similar circumstances, last year, I think. I am so sorry but I think you need to recognise that this is a old hat issue and there is no evidence to suggest that anything is going to change in the near future. [/QUOTE]
