???? FREE MSRA PODCAST – DVLA Cardiovascular Driving Rules: What Every Doctor Must Know ????
A rapid, high-yield review of the DVLA driving restrictions for cardiac conditions — crucial for exams and clinical practice. ???????? From pacemakers to ICDs, hypertension to angioplasty, we break down the must-know rules for Group 1 and Group 2 drivers.


???? Key takeaways from this episode:– ???? Hypertension:
 • Group 1: Can drive if asymptomatic
 • Group 2: Disqualified if consistently ≥180/100 mmHg
 ???? Mnemonic: “180/100 = double trouble for heavy haulers”
– ????️ Cardiac procedures:
 • Elective angioplasty = 1 week off
 • CABG or ACS = 4 weeks off
 • ACS treated with PCI = 1 week off
 • Pacemaker insertion = 1 week off
 • ICD (post-arrest arrhythmia) = 6 months off
 • ICD (prophylactic) = 1 month off for Group 1
 • Group 2: Permanent disqualification if ICD inserted, even prophylactically
– ⚡ Catheter ablation (successful) = 2 days off
– ???? Angina while driving or at rest = Immediate stop + DVLA notification required
– ???? Aortic aneurysms:
 • Notify DVLA at 6.0 cm
 • Disqualification at 6.5 cm
Mnemonic: “6 = speak, 6.5 = stop”
– ???? Heart transplant = 6 weeks off (no automatic DVLA notification unless complications)
