Medical conditions

If you have or develop a medical condition that could affect your ability to drive and meet the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) Group 2 medical standards, you should tell us immediately by telephone or letter.

It is difficult to cover all possibilities but conditions that we need to be aware of include:

Heart conditions
Diabetes
Epilepsy
Psychiatric illness
Eyesight problems
High blood pressure
Neurological conditions (including strokes)
Prescription medication that may affect your ability to drive
Any condition which needs to be reported to the DVLA

We will advise you what to do next. A medical condition will not necessarily stop you continuing as a licensed driver.
