Driving License

Lauren

Hi, I’m trying to renew my license as it expired and not sure what to put down in the your health section or even if I need to gov site says I do if it may effect my driving but what category does it come under as there is not a lot of info is it “severe learning disability” or “serious psychiatric illness or mental health” or do I just not put it down as I don’t want to be in a issue and be fined £1000.

  • As far as I know, you have to inform the relevant authority if any condition adversely affects your ability to drive/drive safely. As autism is lifelong, you have always been autistic, even before a diagnosis. If you were a safe driver before diagnosis, the diagnosis will affect nothing; therefore you do not need to inform.
