Re-insured for a reasonable cost!

After reaching 12 months epilepsy seizure free I re-applied for and got my driving licence back.

Just been onto SWMBOs car insurance and had myself added to the policy (fully comp, 10 months) for £8.66.

Pleasantly surprised as I was expecting it to be significantly more £££ than that.

The insurers asked a number of questions about driving licence valid from and to dates and I explained my situation in full. They recorded the date I passed my driving test (July 1991) as the valid from date. They also made it clear if the DVLA have seen fir to reissue a driving licence then the insurers aren't in a position to judge or penalise the driver.

Driving starts Tuesday next week!
