Medically restricted,cat B driving licence:can i still drive a mini-bus,on a voluntary basis?

Question

non-profit,non-commercial,social use

Answer 1

From looking at the DVLA's document named inf28 which you can find on http://www.dvla.gov.uk/media/pdf/leaflet...

Have found the following info from looking at their document online.

"In general, car licences have to be renewed when drivers reach the age of 70 but younger drivers with restricted medical licences will also be affected by the new rules when their licences are first renewed. If you have a medically restricted licence you should note that you can still drive non-commercial minibuses on a voluntary basis without being subject to the higher health standards until you reach the age of 70."

Answer 2

Check your licence: You need to have category 'D' or 'D1' entitlement as follows;
