Drink Driving
Oct 26, 2010
I didnt send in my pass certificate and lost my entitlement to drive whilst banned.
Hi i was banned for drink driving and have seen my ban out,On trying to regain my licience i was told because i was banned while still using my provisional licence even tho i had passed my test,that beacuse i hadnt upgraded to my full licence with 2 years of passing my test i would have to retake my test,
i had been driving for about 14 months then banned for 24 months so i strugle to see how i was supposed to apply for my full licence after the point of being banned so it was impossible for me to obtain a full licence after being banned.i have spoke to the dvla about objecting to this but am trying to find out if there is any law that means i cannot get my licince back?mant thanks steve

I understand your confusion. Im afraid the ban didn't stop you from sending in your pass certificate and technically the dvla are correct in saying that unless you send it in within 2 years of passing your test you have to resit the test. The driving ban is a different issue.
Sorry.
