Has anyone had any success getting a seatbelt exemption certificate?
My wife has chronic pain that prevents her sitting for long and as a consequence often travels lying down on the back seat of the car, Yes I know that's not a good idea.
I've approached her gp who says they no longer issue the certificates. The local health trust say they don't either.
The best they could manage was suggesting I contact the DVLA - they weren't interested as she isn't the driver,
I contacted my gp at a different practice and they say they do issue them but aren't accepting new patients.
Her consultant says it's not something he can deal with so I'm stuck risking a £1000 fine and goodness knows how many penalty points because the health authorities decided they don't want to issue them.
Has anyone else come up against such problems and if so how did you manage to resolve the problem?
Thanks
Mark
