Re: re-voked driving licence
potentially you could would depend on whether they wanted to keep you or if there was a job available in your office that you could do with out the need to drive, its really going to come down to the local conditions in your office its not a clear cut yes or no answer unfortunately

Re: re-voked driving licence
I was taken on in February for the post of something like "Postman/woman with some driving duties" I reckon that if I ever get to do any driving duties there will be a flotilla of Pigs flying daily in the sky.

Re: re-voked driving licence
I think the licence has been revoked because of a medical condition and not over something 'stupid' that they have done, I doubt that RM would allow them to drive again for fear that they would have to pay out for any claims.

A changeover test, it's basically going out with some sort of AA examiner and driving around for 30 minutes to make sure you're not totally useless at driving.Lazycarton wrote:what is the test that then allows you to drive a van?

It isn't as simple as the old days.
He might be OK. He might not.
It depends on the individual circumstances of his DO.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.
