My sister had one not long ago and it was 6 months for her

Depends on treatment and frequency of seizures before they take your licence away

No one has the licence taken away on medical grounds. You have to surrender it yourself

Medical conditions, disabilities and driving

When to tell DVLA about a medical condition or disability - what will happen to your licence, renewing or reapplying for your licence.

My dad used to have TSAs or blackouts while driving, often coming round on the pavement, or in a garden. He maintained he was fine to drive. Despite us pleading with the GP he would not report him to the DVLA. It took an incident when he ended up in a garden to get my dad to see sense and give me car keys and motor and inform the DVLA.

I had a seizure once, way back in my early twenties. I'd drove for 2 hours and it happened within ten minutes of pulling off the motorway and arriving home.

Dread to think what damage I would have done if it happened 10/20mins earlier.

I had a TIA - a mini stroke - 12 years ago. I didn't have to report it to the DVLA and was advised not to drive for a month - I appreciate things may have changed now though
