    No-one can stop you from driving.

    DVLA can stop you - they can (and do) take your driving licence away.

    Yeah true although they'd have to have a reason to take it away in the first place and the above doesn't use her car.
    The day I had my Beautiful son is the day everything came together for me. For someone so small he done so much and made me complete.
  • My son and daughter both have Cone Road dystrophy so inside there vision is as bad as when they are outside. I have just been advised that my son does not qualify for the higher rate of mobility as he does not fit the svi criteria, so now have to write to the consultant at moorfields to find out his vision then after that have to write to dla. This has been going on since April so it takes a very very long time.
