Ive just done my annual license renewal, and noticed some wording on driving and using CGM that ive not seen before
it states that the CGM MUST be approved for making treatment decisions (non adjunctive), whilst most current well known brands 'should' comply there may well be some that dont, and its the drivers responsibility to know
ALSO important to know, that whilst using CGM you are still required to have a regular blood glucose meter and test strips with you -- so if you dont like carrying one around keep one in the glove box
