DVLA Medical form D4 - Which version?
Hi there,
I am helping my stepfather renew his drivers licence at age 70, and he wants to retain his rights to drive a truck up to 7.5 tons and a minibus. He currently has a 'car' licence with 'grandfather rights' to the other categories.
We understand he needs to fill in a D4 with his doctor, and I have tried to download one from the internet. Problem is I've found two versions of the D4, one from DVLA and another from gov.uk. The forms are quite different, especially in respect of the vision assessment which is more detailed on one of the forms than the other.
Since both versions of the D4 appear to be currently available online, which one should he use?

The DVLA are actually still accepting both forms. The newer one though is the one where the vision assessment sheet has numbers specified on it and does not require a pee sample to be taken by the doctor.
Apart from that they are very similar, just slightly different layout.0
