Message: <blockquote data-quote="phoenix" data-source="post: 753348" data-attributes="member: 12578">It's not so different here now,the only difference is that it probably isn't your own doctor that writes the report.Having said that ,on  French Forums  there are many stories of  medecins agree (doctors appointed by the local authority) being not particulary pleasant and  of people ending  up with very short renewals, You can get up to 5 years but  there are many who report only being given 6months  As  on this forum, you probably read more of the people who have problems. Each visit though does costs 33E paid directly to the doctor and not reimbursable.The actual  rules for  being granted a licence  are identical in both countries: (they now  apply to everyone who injects; this changed in 2012)  translated from <a href="http://www.afd.asso.fr/diabete-et/permis-de-conduire/delivrance-renouvellement" target="_blank">http://www.afd.asso.fr/diabete-et/permis-de-conduire/delivrance-renouvellement</a> (I'm very lucky in that the only medecin agree in my area is my GP but that is very unusual)   The advice from the AFD is that you should not take the wheel with a level below 1g/l (5.5mmol/l) That is slightly above the level in the UK advice.  <a href="http://www.afd.asso.fr/diabete-et/permis-de-conduire/hypo-au-volant" target="_blank">http://www.afd.asso.fr/diabete-et/permis-de-conduire/hypo-au-volant</a></blockquote>
