[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 2397614, member: 41816"] hi, If you have a look at the DVLA there is a very comprehensive list of conditions that you are required to inform about. Arthritis is on the list. I can’t remember the details (it is a while since I read the details), but I suspect that if your arthritis affects range of vision and/or reaction times, or anything else that will make driving unsafe, then you are obliged to declare it. I know I was horrified to learn that I have a health condition (prolactinoma) that I was supposed to declare, but had no idea and had been driving for over 20 yrs with it. Of course, I immediately declared it, and was informed that, with my current situation and medication, I could continue to drive, but should inform them if things worsened. [/QUOTE]
