flag UK drivers with arthritis must report their condition to the DVLA if it affects their ability to drive safely, or face a £1,000 fine. flag Arthritis, affecting over 10 million people, can cause pain, stiffness, and reduced strength, potentially impairing vehicle control. flag While not all cases require disclosure, drivers must inform authorities if symptoms impact driving, such as needing special controls or experiencing significant discomfort. flag Failure to report may result in penalties, especially if an accident occurs. flag Guidance urges drivers to assess their fitness and seek medical advice, with options like modified vehicles, Blue Badges, and mobility assistance available. flag Concealing the condition is discouraged due to legal and safety risks.
