Hi all.
Im in need of advice about my dvla medical. I was banned in jan 2012 for dd then got banned again 2 months after for dd again. Very stupid i no and wud never do this again. I got a 4yr ban, i went back to court last month to ask for my ban to be reduced due to starting a new job in june. The judge kindly reduced my ban to the 30th may. I have sent my application in and im waiting for details of my medical to come through to book it. I only drink at weekends so not to worried on the drinking aspect, the problem I now face is that I have been on 5mg of diazepam for 2 yrs due to anxiety not drinking problems.. I came off them a few weeks ago as I have read somewhere that the dvla cud refuse my licence cause of this. Does anyone know if this is true? Will the dvla contact my doctor with me having 2 dd so close together? My doctor said if they contact him he will say he thinks im fit to drive. Im just so worries that this could affect me getting my licence back, if I had of known this I would of stopped taking them sooner. Im not going to tell the dvla doctor that im on them cause im not anymore, just worried if they contact my doctor they will find out I was on them for so long and refuse me... thank you in advance for any advice
