HGV and PCV drivers need to complete the D4 medical as part of their first application for a Group 2 bus or lorry licence; HGV and PCV drivers also need to have a D4 medical at 45 years old and then every 5 years until they are 65 when they will need a medical completed annually.<\/p>\n

The DVLA D4 medical form is valid for 4 months from the date of the Doctor\u2019s signature (ie date of D4 form completion), so you must send the paperwork in to DVLA within 4 months of your medical for it to be accepted.<\/p>\n

The DVLA Guidelines state that if you are to drive a commercial vehicle you must be between 6 months and 3 years clear of mental breakdown. The time depends upon the severity of the condition e.g. Schizophrenia generally has a wait time of 3 years whereas anxiety attack would be 6 months.<\/p>\n
