You will usually need a D4 medical when applying for a provisional lorry or bus licence, renewing a Group 2 entitlement from the relevant age, or when the DVLA asks for updated medical information. The D4 form is used for lorry and bus licence applications.
Group 2 licences are generally renewed every five years or at age 45, whichever comes first. From age 65, renewal is normally required every year.
Please bring your D4 form, photo identification, driving licence where available, glasses or contact lenses, and a list of your current medication. Bring any relevant medical or specialist information if you have an ongoing condition.

DVLA Group 2 Medical Requirements
Group 2 medical standards apply to professional lorry and bus drivers. A DVLA D4 medical report may be required when applying for, renewing or retaining an HGV, LGV, PCV or bus driving entitlement.
Who Do Group 2 Standards Apply To?
Group 2 standards are stricter than ordinary car licence standards because they apply to drivers operating larger vehicles professionally.
- ✓ HGV and LGV drivers
- ✓ Lorry and goods vehicle drivers
- ✓ PCV, bus and coach drivers
- ✓ Drivers applying for provisional Group 2 entitlement
- ✓ Drivers renewing an existing Group 2 licence
First Group 2 Application
New applicants for a lorry or bus licence normally need a medical assessment completed by a registered doctor and recorded on the DVLA D4 form.
Renewal From Age 45
Group 2 drivers generally need a further medical at age 45 and every five years after that until reaching age 65.
Annual Renewal From Age 65
From age 65, Group 2 lorry and bus driving entitlements are generally renewed every year and normally require an updated medical report.
Medical Conditions and Medication
Drivers must provide accurate information about relevant medical conditions, symptoms and medication. Additional evidence may be requested where further review is needed.
Group 2 Eyesight Standards
Your vision must meet the applicable DVLA Group 2 eyesight requirements. The eyesight assessment is included in your Motor Medicals Bristol appointment.
DVLA Makes the Final Decision
The examining doctor records the relevant medical findings on your D4 report. The DVLA reviews the information and makes the final decision about your driving entitlement.
The DVLA may request additional information, specialist evidence or more frequent reviews depending on your health and driving history. A shorter-duration licence may sometimes be issued where ongoing medical monitoring is required.
