I have a past history of alcohol dependence but have been abstinent now for three years. For the first two years I was working and could afford to run my car. I was issued a one year licence because I was still answering yes to the have you seen a GP within past 3 years question. This happened the second year, again a one year licence was issued.
Question now is, I should've applied back in Oct 18 and would've been sent for a medical. My circumstances had changed and I couldn't afford to run a car so never saw the need to apply again. I know now I should've just applied anyway because it wouldn't have cost any money. March 31st 2016 was the last time I was seen for this condition by my GP so my 3 year period of abstinence has been achieved. Just worried they might question why I didn't apply in Oct 18. I am able to and will answer No to all the questions. I am also back working again and in a position to get my car back on the road.
