Learning disabilities and driving

You must tell DVLA if you have a learning disability.

You do not need to tell DVLA if you have learning difficulties, for example dyslexia.

You can be fined up to £1,000 if you do not tell DVLA about a medical condition that affects your driving. You may be prosecuted if you’re involved in an accident as a result.
