If the dvla are not working within their own guidelines how and accept a doctors report that's unsigned by the doYes, the last person on the forum to take DVLA to court cost them £6000 and lost, DVLA never lose....
No I haven't yet , but all the evidence I have sent them so far has just been ignored, evidence that ripped the doctor's report apart and the 4 CDT negative cdt test throughout the year I have sent them to show I haven't been drinking and a letter from my boss of 2 years to say theres never been a problem, I'm a motorcycle courier and have been all my life should I change my career because a doctor got something wrong and the dvla has just ignored the evidenceCourt is a not a starter, as Adlee1 says, and even if you won, the magistrates would be limited to saying you should be given your licence back. They have no power to award compensation for having no work, how would you prove that you could not have sought other employment that did not involve driving?
Have you been through the complaints stages set out on the DVLA website?
Sorry I forgot to say I've already had my license back for 2 years ,it was a new doctor I had that sent the report back ,that he didn't even sign or date ,the dvla never questioned him just revoked my licenseIf the dvla are not working within their own guidelines how and accept a doctors report that's unsigned by the do

I'm just asking ,I'm already going to court ,you have to show you have a case to the magistrates, and show them evidence which I have already done ,before they let you appeal, my solicitor has already wrote to the dvla and they still ignored the evidence, apparently this is happening all the time with the dvla,I was only asking that's all,the dvla have no new evidence since the day they gave me my license back and they accepted the doctors report which was not completed properly. A 2 year old could have done better .thanks anywayBut how can you consider going to court if you have not been through the complaints procedure stages. I am not being unsympathetic, just that there are stages to follow and you need to do them.
I am not telling you to change your job, just showing you what would be asked if you tried to get compensation. (which you can’t anyway)
Bitterness and stubbornness is just going to cost you money. Give it up, you have your licence back now which is what you wanted so you have already got the best outcome. Even if you did get to court and miraculously won (which if I understand correctly NOBODY ever has), what outcome are you looking for? You WILL NOT get compensated, the courts would only say that you should have had your licence back earlier and the Doctor had made an error of judgement. Licences are a privilege and not a given right, the only winner here will be the solicitor who will be paid whatever the outcome....I'm just asking ,I'm already going to court ,you have to show you have a case to the magistrates, and show them evidence which I have already done ,before they let you appeal, my solicitor has already wrote to the dvla and they still ignored the evidence, apparently this is happening all the time with the dvla,I was only asking that's all,the dvla have no new evidence since the day they gave me my license back and they accepted the doctors report which was not completed properly.
