Cevap

Notify the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) immediately
Under UK law and the Highway Code, any driver diagnosed with a medical condition or disability that could affect their driving ability must notify the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) immediately. The DVLA will assess the condition and decide if a licence can be retained, restricted, or revoked.

1
Identify the legal obligation when diagnosed with a potential driving impairment
Recognise that medical fitness to hold a driving licence is regulated by the DVLA
The licensing authority must assess whether the condition allows the driver to safely operate a vehicle on public roads
2
Evaluate the timing and recipient of the notification
Determine that notification must be made directly to the DVLA without delay
Failing to notify the DVLA immediately of a notifiable medical condition is an offence and may invalidate driving insurance
