Group 2 drivers need to also submit a Medical Report (D501) with these forms, to be completed by their doctor with each application/renewal. The Road Safety Authority are asking all drivers to self declare certain existing medical conditions when completing a driver licence application, renewal or exchange form. Group 2 category drivers are required to prove their fitness to drive at application or renewal or during their licence period, should their health deteriorate or change in a way that would impact on their ability to drive safely.
The Road Safety Authority of Ireland have launched a public consultation with Group 2 licensed category drivers – bus and truck drivers – along with their representative associations.
