Waiting ages for medical driving licence, what can I do?

I have been waiting for my medical driving licence for ages and I still have not received it. My consultant has said many are facing the same issue.

Yes, you are not alone. There have been long delays with medical driving licence applications this year, although the DVLA has pledged to clear the backlog on medical driving licences this month. I am not sure how long you have been waiting but if it is more than a few months I would suggest making a formal complaint: www.gov.uk/government/organisations/driver-and-veh...e
