Driving licence renewal.

Post by Chaddy »

Can anyone advice please.My driving licence runs out shortly,ive had advice off the members of the board what to do ( down at the pub off course ) but they all seem to differ.
Where do i go,what documents do i need to take,being an octogenarian do i need an eye test,how long does it take etc etc.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Yes,perhaps I should have said downloaded medical form signed by doctor, I thought the signed bit would obviously be by a doctor.

Our GP (Dr) has the forms at the surgery, make an appointment and go to see them for your eye and health check, if you pass the test you then take your form to the Citizens advice office or the ministry of transport office.
Though I am puzzled, if you are over 80, can you remember, haven't you done this before?

Do make sure you know the expiry date of the licence you have now.
I assumed that mine was in August near my Birthday.. But it isn't, it expires in July. Worth checking
