I’m curious my cdt was 0.8 after not a drop of alcohol for 4 weeks. Would it go down to 0 if I didn’t drink at all or what’s the lowest a non drinker would go
 
Hi lissylou the lowest I have seen on the forum is 0.5, I was 0.8 after 2 months abstinence but we are not all built the same, that's why I guess the CDT has a range of parameters e.g. O%/2.1% height weight big small so we all fit in somewhere and that they can determine if someone has a serious drinking habit...

How do you know what your CDT was I was never told just presumed I'd passed as the next I was told a form was sent to my doctor then an M1 to myself still waiting
 
i contacted the DVLA and asked, they refused to tell me over the phone even tho I pushed. I was give an email address requesting a copy of my results and they sent me my paper work which had the percentage at the bottom. I emailed subjectaccess.requests@dvla.gov.uk with my name address and driver number requesting my results from my Dvla medical
 
I got my license back in June, but haven’t left the group! I didn’t apply for the CDT level, but after I got my license back I was sent it for my information the level was 0.8, so you may get in without SAR was 0.4 with medichecks

Sorry what is SAR pls
 
It could be worse.... i have had my HRO medical and CDT test (which was 0.6%) and filled out the medical questionnaire, unfortunately i have ticked the box by mistake to say that i have been alcohol dependant!! so they have refused my licence!

i have now been told to see my GP and get them to write a letter to confirm i am not and have never been alcohol dependent
 
Hi what was the reason for refusal ?
Because I said (IF) I go out I may drink up to 10 units, my DR that I haven't even seen in 21 year's, went off what a specialist had said, that I said!!!!! Now my doctor said I had been alcohol dependent in the passed apparently!! News to me, I got a 18mth ban, fine, community service, I am now into the 3yr with no licence, my partner bought me a new car when I applied for my licence, this now is totally heartbreaking, I held my hands up and paid the price, yet still being punished for it, CDT test of 0.9 is proof, my lively hood is at risk, I have read on DVLA website you can have a temporary licence, my test results say that, but not even been offered that!! Totally ruined my head and life, even my Dr said that they are trying to make an example of you, way too far!!!
 
Was you classed as dependant, misuse or hro just wondering if they want you to do 12 months abstinence, you can challenge it, they classed me as dependent I challenged it with my doctor and they changed it to misuse, took 3 months tho....
