No, I have pasted when you can drive on Section 88, although I was a HRO I was issued my licence back at the end of the disqualification after my DVLA medical - because I was re-issued it on a 1 year basis and have to undertake a further review at the end of that 1 year, whilst my application for review is with the DVLA I am permitted to drive under Section 88 Road Traffic Act for 1 year.
To continue driving under Section 88, you must meet all of the following criteria: • Your doctor must have told you that you are fit to drive. If your doctor is unsure about how a medical condition affects driving, they should refer to ‘Assessing fitness to drive – a guide for medical professionals’ at
www.gov.uk/dvla/fitnesstodrive • You have held a valid driving licence (see *below) and only drive vehicles you have applied for on your current application and were entitled to drive on your previous licence. • If you hold a Group 2 (bus or lorry) licence, your entitlement has not been suspended, revoked or refused by a traffic commissioner. • You meet any conditions that were specified on your previous licence that still apply. • DVLA has received your correct and complete application within the last 12 months. • Your last licence was not revoked or refused for medical reasons. • You are not currently disqualified from driving by a court. • You were not disqualified as a high risk offender on or after 1 June 2013 (a high risk offender is a driver convicted of a serious drink driving offence).
