My petition:
Reduce the time it takes DVLA to return wrongly revoked driving licences.
I have just had my driving license revoked on medical grounds, this despite being allowed to drive for 5 months while they did investigations & having both my GP & psychiatrist saying I am fit & perfectly safe to drive. The DVLA say even its a mistake I still have to reaply & it could take months.
On the DVLA website it states that with Personality Disorder a license will be revoked if you are likely to be a danger behind the wheel. My doctor says I am no danger My psychiatrist says I am no danger. DVLA says I cannot drive despite my excellent record I have driven for 22 yrs, never had an accident, never had a single point on my license. I live in the countryside with young children, I am now stranded as there is no nearby buses. My dad is sick with cancer ,until now was visiting regularly.
It is beyond a joke taking so long to return licenses which should never have been revoked. It could happen to anyone, imagine how losing your license for months would affect you, would you lose your job, your home as no income, even cause family break up?
I would be very grateful if you could click on link & sign petition, thanks : )
