Hi, in 2019 Vicroads sent me a letter saying I needed a medical check since I'd been diagnosed with epilepsy (but I've never had a seizure). I had the check, sent them back the form completed by the doctor, and then several weeks later got a letter saying all good, your licence is unaffected.
Yesterday I was pulled over by police and they said my licence was suspended since early 2020. I asked why and they said I didn't complete a medical check. I replied I had but after a little back and forth we realised Vicroads were talking about a letter they claim they sent in Jan, 2020 which I never received. I also never received any letter saying it was then suspended in Feb, 2020. Due to covid I've been through dozens of police checkpoints in the last 12 months, they all saw my licence and never said anything. Also no letters in 2021.
The police yesterday said to call vicroads, get a medical check submitted and if passed then the suspension should be removed in a few days. This sounds too good to be true, would this be the likely / correct course of events? Thanks.
