I understood in the meeting this week that due to the health issues I now have, it would be unattainable to continue as the DVLA would strip me of my HGV1 licence on becoming aware of these conditions. The conditions are sleep apnea, type * diabetes and hydrocephalus.
Hi ****, I understand your concerns regarding your medical conditions and your HGV1 licence. Here are some key points regarding your situation:
- The DVLA has strict medical standards for HGV1 licence holders.
- You must inform the DVLA of any medical conditions that could affect your driving.
- Failure to notify the DVLA could lead to fines or legal consequences.
Would you like assistance with understanding your employment rights further or how to handle the DVLA notification?
