Abstract
In the interest of road safety, driving license holders who suffer from a medical condition likely to affect fitness to drive must notify the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) and not drive. The Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions (of the Department for the Environment, Transport and the Regions, DETR) has the responsibility, via his Medical Advisers at the Drivers Medical Unit of the DVLA, to ensure that all licence holders are fit to drive.
