Well im finally re applying for my licence after my ban ended over 12yrs ago!

i was given a 3yr ban, a very hefty fine and ordered to take a medical in 1996 for blowing 168 on the machine an then i kinda pissed the bench off in court by not paying my solicitors fee's and causing the doctors/specialists/solicitors to leave the court room without giving evidence for me and leaving me unrepresented, needless to say they battered me in court, lol, anyway, i didnt bother reapplying for my licence as truthfully, i wouldnt av had a hope in hell of passing the medical!! i kinda liked a drink back then, lol, well im completely teetotal now and have been for a few years so decided to re-apply, the ban ended in 1999 and i can remember the forms arriving, it was £35 back then, bloody £90 now!! what a @&%$in rip off! so ive filled out the form, got my cheque an photos an send it off, how long will the dvla take to get in touch with me? and how long will i have to wait for my medical?? an how much are they nowadays??

Please see this thread which outlines the timescale for one high risk offenders driving licence application, this is only one persons experience and timescales may vary. The DVLA medical fee is approximately £100.00, however, the exact price will be dependant upon which particular doctor carries out your medical.

More information on the DVLA medical and the time it can take the DVLA to make a decision can be found here.
