[QUOTE="Oldvatr, post: 2517169, member: 196898"] I am over 70 so am on a 3 year renewal cycle, I have to surrender my licence anf there ia an Act of Parliament that allows me to drive for up to one yeat without it. Last June I submitted my DIAB1 and renewal form with my licence card , and I got my plastic ID back in March 2022. The act of Parliament only covers a renewal either due to age or a limited duration medical licence (group 2 requirement). Not sure if it covers voluntary surrender. Certainly if a HCP declares one to be unfit on medical grounds, then that is in effect a revocation anyway. The Consultant may actually be correct, because the only time period I have seen DVLA state is the 2 hypo's in 12 months rule. If they say one hypo in six months then get that in writing from them.
