HGV Medical Requirements FOR SUTTON COLDFIELD DRIVERS
HGV Medical Requirements FOR SUTTON COLDFIELD DRIVERS
Sutton Coldfield sits at the northern edge of Birmingham, within easy reach of the logistics corridors running through Lichfield, Tamworth, Cannock and Walsall. Many HGV and LGV drivers choose our Sutton Coldfield clinic rather than travelling into the city centre. All Group 2 licence holders face stricter medical standards than car drivers.
You need a D4 medical when applying for a first HGV or LGV licence; when renewing (every five years until age 45, every five years from 45 to 65, then annually from 65); if the DVLA requests one after a health change; or if an employer requires a periodic health check.
A GMC-registered doctor must carry out the examination. No NHS GP referral is needed. Our clinic offers same-day appointments with no waiting list, and we complete and sign your D4 form on the day.
The D4 Medical Form EXPLAINED
The D4 Medical Form EXPLAINED
The D4 is the DVLA’s official medical examination report for Group 2 licences. Your doctor completes and signs it during your Sutton Coldfield appointment. You keep a copy and submit the original to the DVLA with your licence application or renewal.
Vision. A minimum acuity of 6/9 in the better eye and 6/12 in the other is required, with or without corrective lenses. Field of vision must meet Group 2 standards.
Blood pressure. Readings must be below 180/100 mmHg at the time of examination. A reading at or above this level may require treatment before the licence can be issued.
Cardiovascular and neurological history. Conditions such as angina, previous heart attacks, seizures, blackouts and TIAs are assessed. Some conditions require a specified symptom-free period before a licence can be granted.
Other health conditions. Diabetes, sleep apnoea, renal disease and certain psychiatric conditions are relevant to Group 2 standards and documented accurately on the form.
Preparing for Your Sutton Coldfield HGV MEDICAL
Preparing for Your Sutton Coldfield HGV MEDICAL
To help your appointment run without delay, bring the following to our Sutton Coldfield clinic:
Your current driving licence, including the paper counterpart if applicable.
A list of your regular medication, including the dose and the prescribing doctor’s name.
Your glasses or contact lenses, if you use them for driving.
Details of any conditions already declared to the DVLA.
Your D4 form if you have downloaded it from gov.uk, though we can provide one at the appointment.
If a condition may affect your Group 2 fitness, such as diabetes, a previous heart condition or a neurological history, mention this when booking. Your doctor may need a little more time and could ask for a specialist letter.
For working drivers, booking your examination at least four weeks before your licence expires is advisable to give the DVLA enough time to process your renewal once your D4 form is submitted.
