Guest, we'd love to know what you think about the forum! Take the Diabetes Forum Survey 2025 »

Message: <blockquote data-quote="rjnicholds" data-source="post: 704465" data-attributes="member: 147161">I think you've completely missed the point of the petition. The starter of the petition clearly stated that her license has been removed due to her honesty.The people agreeing to the petition are signing all due to a unfair judgement. I don't assume you read through the information and back story provided on the change.org site, because if you had and had done so correctly, you would have seen that the GP had approved themselves that she was safe to drive. If a medical professional is saying that it is again, safe to drive how can the DVLA, whom will have a much lesser knowledge of the medical history of the campaigner deem it acceptable and unsafe?This petition isn't simply about one person, it is about many who have been treated in the same way, I do agree that bad management of diabetes is a risk, obviously but this is a case where it cannot be so. The campaigner has had to leave her job as a medical professional because of these circumstances, as she is a medical professional herself, I'm sure her diabetes will be managed extremely well and the two instances of hypo's were simply an odd occurrence. SafetY TraiN, I hope you do your research for the work that you do, because you clearly haven't done it in this case.</blockquote>
