Driving license renewal
01/25/2024 9:18 a.m.
In April I expire the driving license and it is the first time I have to do it with diabetes.
I have read that you have to carry a favorable report of the endocrine, that if you renew it for 3 years, others say that 5 years, in other cases that you do not have to carry anything and even say nothing.
You will tell me your experience.
All the best.

I did not mention anything about diabetes and renewed me 10 years, I know it's wrong, but I step on me.If they are going to put it every 3 or 5 years that charge me less, so nothing.

Before I think they renewed for 2 years.It cost you half.I don't know if it will remain the same.
I would not say anything ...
If a law is unfair, the right thing is to disobey.

I renewed a couple of years ago with a favorable report from the doctor.
They renewed me for 5 years and it cost me the same as my wife who renewed for 10 years (she is not diabetic)
I caught a anger from the copon.
If I get to know I don't say anything about diabetes.

Thank you very much for the answers, it has been clear to me.They also detected the diabetes a month after renewing the card 10 years ago, another draw.

Indeed, it depends on who touches you.A year I was renewed for 2 years, and the next time I changed site and I was renewed for 5 years, paying the same as one of normal renewal, and with the endocrine report that I am controlled.I think 5 years is to the maximum that I can aspire now ... :(

A question that arises, if the next renewal change of clinic will they already know about diabetes?Or do they ask you again?Can you hide that data or are you already marked forever?

I think that data already has the DGT

I took it out in 2015 and the psychotechnical I had to carry a medical report etc because by rookie, I said it was diabetic.They gave me the driving license for five years, when I went to renew it, to the question of whether I suffered from any diseases such as diabetes, etc. The answer was no and then they already gave it to me for 10 years.It is indeed a room.

I have the impression, without being an expert, that if nothing happens there will be no problem, but the day you have the responsibility of an accident there may be problems:
a) Your insurer may not take care of civil liability if you have a condition that prevents you from driving (especially if you are in the 6 to 10 validity of the last renewal of the card).
b) In case of a criminal via, if you carry a glycemia sensor, pray for not having a hypo (or that the sensor marks it even if it is not real) before causing an accident.In this case we talk about crimes.
c) I don't like paying every 5 years, but more expensive can be paid every 10 years.If a child is killed by a diabetic driver in hypoglycemia, will you forgive it for diabetic?
With this I do not defend how the system is mounted, I think it would have to be a free administrative procedure, but this is our country ...

What renew the card for two years how does an accident avoid?
Criminal via ... even if you are diabetic, if you can drive.Where is the crime?The fine comes out cheaper than what card renovations cost you.

And what is the difference between having the current card and having debuted with diabetes only 2 years ago and that another 2 years of card and leads to know my condition for 4 years, without reflecting my current card, that from here to2 years say if I am or am I not a diabetic in a renewal?
I see it a discrimination for us ... why, for less years of renewal than a non -sick?I look at my values before taking the motorcycle daily or the car, I upload the top alarms to be aware and if I ever have suspected that the sensor is not right, I have stopped and I have thrown out of the glucometer formake sure .... I think that all diabetics are very responsible in this regard.
And I have it clear, when I have to renew ... I am not a diabetic.

No no, that the card in 2, 5 or 10 years has nothing to do with what you may or may not have an accident.
The criminal process, any illicit that compromises public security in relation to driving can be a crime.Deliberately hiding that you have diabetes is an illicit.
But go, that I am nobody to say what each one has to do.

@pau91 Anyone has an accident and not for being diabetic.
I would like to see a statistic of how many accidents with death are caused by hypoglycemia, how many by stroke, epilepsy, hypertension, sleep disorder, etc. with all the limitations that the driving card has
