Renewal of Driving License at 70
With the big 70 rapidly approaching in just over two months I have been trying to wade through the application for my new license.As I see it just by completing the form and sending to the DVLA I shall be entitled to drive vehicles in the A,B,BE and B1 categories.This
can be done online.To be able to drive in C1 (medium sized vehicle) and D1(minibus) categories it is necessary to get a D4 Medical Examination report from my Doctor.
Whilst we are happily content to continue towing our caravan for the foreseeable future at some stage we are likely to change to a motorhome.Presumably this comes under the C1 category i.e medium sized vehicle (3500-7500kg - e.g Autotrail Cheyenne size).
If this is correct then is it essential that I apply now (this apparenttly can't be done online) now or if required can the license be upgraded to cover a motorhome in the future when the license has to be renewed in three years time?
There must be loads of folk on here who have gone through the process but I can't find any info regarding this on this or any other forum.
