Getinnowhere, Shockingly, I have just googled the telephone number on your post about HRO’s and it comes from MAJ Law “specialist motoring solicitors”. A shining example of why no one should use them! They go on to set out what makes you a HRO, then says your own GP MAY not be able to do the DVLA medical ( They CANNOT do the DVLA HRO medicals) some misspellings, then say that if you drive whilst waiting to for the result of the medical and your ban is up, you are still disqualified and can be sent to prison (you are NOT banned when your ban is up, you would be guilty of driving without a licence and cannot go to prison for that)
They also say you are HRO if you blow 87.5. That is like saying you are speeding if you are doing 30 in a 30. The HRO is if you blow MORE than 2.5 times the legal limit, which is 87.5, so the reading has to be 88 or more to be HRO (apart from the fact that the breath test machines only show full numbers anyway)
Than might seem a bit pedantic, but as they splash all over their website how they find inaccuracies in the prosecution case and how the police do not stick to procedure, surely it would be reasonable to expect them to give accurate advice on their website?
They say:
Get Advice from the Experts
M.A.J. Law’s team of expert motoring defence solicitors are always on hand to discuss your case and provide advice.

i will leave it to you to decide if they have the capability to offer “expert advice”.....
Due to changes in the law, the courts, police and prosecution service may now regard an offender as ‘high risk’ if they are convicted of a drink driving offence.
