The DVLA requires drivers to declare a wide range of medical conditions that may affect their ability to drive safely. These include — but are not limited to — epilepsy and seizure disorders, diabetes managed with insulin or certain oral medications, sleep apnoea (particularly if severe or untreated), cardiac conditions including recent heart attack or arrhythmia, stroke or TIA, Parkinson's disease, dementia, psychosis, and significant visual field defects. Failing to declare a relevant condition is a criminal offence carrying a fine of up to £1,000 and may invalidate your motor insurance.
If you are uncertain whether your condition requires DVLA notification, a private GP consultation at Lambert Medical Practice can provide clarity. We assess your condition against current DVLA At a Glance guidelines and advise you accordingly.
The DVLA applies different medical standards depending on the type of driving licence you hold. Group 1 covers standard car and motorcycle licences (categories A, B, BE). Group 2 covers large goods vehicles (LGV) and passenger carrying vehicles (PCV — buses and coaches), which are held to significantly stricter standards given the greater risk to the public.
Many conditions that permit Group 1 driving are disqualifying for Group 2 licences. For example, a well-controlled epileptic who meets the one-year seizure-free standard may drive a car, but cannot hold a Group 2 licence. Similarly, the cardiovascular and visual standards for Group 2 are markedly tighter than for Group 1. Our GPs are experienced in assessing against both sets of standards and can advise professional drivers accordingly.
To ensure your DVLA medical assessment proceeds efficiently, please bring the following to your appointment: your current driving licence, any relevant specialist letters or discharge summaries, a list of your current medications including dosages, any monitoring records relevant to your condition (for example, blood glucose diary for diabetic drivers, blood pressure logs for hypertensive patients), and your DVLA correspondence or the specific form you need completed. The more information you bring, the more efficiently we can complete the assessment and any associated documentation.
