[QUOTE="Oldvatr, post: 2517145, member: 196898"] Think the operative word is "seizure". If you needed assistance to deal with the hypo event, then yes, the DVLA will insist on the time out. If you did not need assistance then the DVLA recently changed their requirements regarding nocturnal hypo events. You will need to fill in a DIAB 1 form and grant consent for DVLA to have access to your medical history whichever route you choose, so neither is an escape from that angst. Are you Group 1 or 2 driver? Group 2 has stricter requirements for diabetics. HGV and PSV drivers are very strict. DVLA took 9 months to approve my renewal this year, but my NHS file now occupies 3 large files. [/QUOTE]
