[QUOTE="donnellysdogs, post: 146017, member: 17713"] Hi Ken Thanks for your answer to my post. I couldn't get through to DVLA today, but have asked them by email to send me a medical questionnaire for diabetics. I am seeing my consultant tomorrow for my annual check up, so I guess I had better try and get him on my side, as I guess the DVLA will write to him. Will they revoke my licence before writing to my gp and consultant? Will dvla allow me to write an explanation with the questionnaire as to what happened and why the ambulance and police was called? SHould I try to give my explanation to them? This is the first time I have ever had a disabling hypo at the wheel of a car in 25 years, and despite driving erratically, I had stopped the car myself and was getting sweets out the glove box when the off duty fireman intervened. Would it be worth trying to tell the dvla this when I send in the questionnaire? I have always had a 3 year licence for past 25 years, do you know what my chances are of losing/keeping my licence? Many thanks Sharon [/QUOTE]
