Hi - just wondered if anyone has ever had their driving license looked at by the DVLA - in particular how long does it take for them to review your license.
Basically my husband suffered a mini stroke in June (doesnt smoke, fit & healthy and in his early 40's )- he has since made a full and complete recovery and his latest MRI scan shows no continuing problems and he should "carry on with his life like it never happened"
Easier said than done - as he is a lorry driver he has made contact with the DVLA and notified them and they said they need to review his license. We believe he may have the lorry (LGV) part suspended but we are waiting for them to come back to us to say if they are and how long (it could be between 6 to 12 months according to DVLA website)
Has anyone had to have the DVLA review their license - if so how long did it take for them to make their decision.
My husband needs to know what is going on and the DVLA are not really forthcoming with information.
Thanks forumites
