Hi,

I am concerned about a 76yr old PH driver on Merseyside - he is receiving medical
treatment for angina and bladder cancer, but is driving a taxi 7 days a week.

Would someone with angina be allowed to drive a cab ?

If a medical practitioner says he is ok, then he is ok.

I would imagine he has to have a yearly medical.

But 7 days a week at that age? [-X
