We all need a licence to drive but it becomes a little more complicated if you are an HGV driver.
It can be easy to forget the rules surrounding driver medicals so we thought it a good idea to remind you of what the requirements are.
We are experiencing significantly higher call volumes than usual due to the number of drivers who were granted a 12 month licence by DVLA during COVID-19 now reaching the end of this licensing period and needing a medical.
Our team are doing all we can to accommodate these additional bookings but we kindly ask that you book online where possible using our online booking portal.
