D1 Medical Requirements
If you plan to drive a minibus in the UK, you must meet the D1 medical test requirements, which are also applied to lorry and bus drivers.
For those under 70, passing this test is important for getting a D1 license; for those over 70, it’s necessary to renew it.
The process contains a medical check-up with a doctor who considers your health, mainly focusing on your vision, mental well-being, and any physical conditions that could impact your driving.
