" Are you having seizures or blackouts? If so you'll need to be clear for 2yrs before they'll consider giving you your license back." I had to do this. Had to inform DVLA. Luckily I've been seizure free for 5 years. DVLA know of my medical conditions, luckily I can still keep my license. | |||

"lets not assume hes lost it for being bad lad - some health conditions prevent you holding a driving license" Very trie, and also understand the difference between a revocation and a disqualification - very different things. A relative of mine lost his this way OP, had brain scans, sleep monitoring the lot because he had seizures, he had to be free of them for 2 years as someone else had said. Definitely naff that you have lost jobs over it though, very hard to take. | |||

"There is also a major difference between using one's own car and being subject to public transportation. If another party is at fault, then equivalent transport, such as reimbursement of taxis, would be closer than waiting for buses etc." But that wouldn't be financially responsible. The council offers a free bus pass, and that's enough really. Taxis are a luxury. | |||
