Hello DKa48,
Yes you do need to notify the DVLA of any medical issues, they will then send you a medical form and a consent letter for you to sign, so they can contact your GP for a medical report. I done it for mine and cleared as ok to drive..
Another thing since you are on the high rate of DLA have you looked into getting a car on the Motability Scheme, I have done so and it is great. No car payments, insurance or worries about anything but putting petrol in the car for three years. There is a large choice of cars. They take your DLA payment to pay for the car. It was worth it to me as I needed a car that was an automatic for when I can drive and they tend to be a bit pricey.
Not what you're looking for?
