Re: [IPk] Type 2 Diabetes DVLA and Insurance
Hi
If you have type 2 you should notify the DLVA, they note this down it doesn't
effect your licence this is still issued to your 70th birthday but when you
receive the letter, you are told that if at any point your condition or
treatment has changed then you must inform them of this.... So diet and
tablets don't really have a effect on your licence, but if you have to have
insulin to support your type2, then the same rules apply as those to type
one..

sorry, I meant three years from full licence. But the rules might have
changed.
