Hi looking for some advice
A while back in July 2021 I was stopped by police whilst driving.
This stop resulted in a small amount of cannibus being found (which wasn't mine)
Was arrested released thought nothing more of the issue.
Roll on September 2021 yet again I'm stopped by police, however to my shock they tell me my driving licence has been revoked, due to medical reasons.
However I have no medical conditions nor have I or my gp reported any to dvla.
After numerous failed attempts I finally mange to get hold of the dvla.
Who tell me they have received third party information from police regarding drugs.
An that my licence has been revoked for non compliance.
Turns out the dvla sent me a letter to a old address which I hadn't received as I changed address, I put in a change of address form an didn't hear anything back.
Didn't think much of it as it was covid an didn't have the time to be chasing dvla to see if they had received it.
I've sent dvla a new D1 aswell as a DG1 form
This was in September, from then to now I've lost my job an I'm on the point of being evicted from my home, all whilst the dvla tell me there looking into things.
They won't send the letter saying I've been revoked to my new address so I cant appeal this decision.
They won't reply to my complains, so I cant move on to stage 2, an get my mp involved.
In my case I'm thinking I should just need a urine test an that should be the end of the matter once the all clear results come back
Is this something I can arrange myself as the dvla are clearly struggling an the time duration is taking too long for me.
Any advise or help would be greatly appreciated
