Hi;
My dx was only last month (ADHD PI).
I guess I am meant to notify my motor insurers. Does anyone have experience of this, and how they react?
Do they try to bung up the premiums?
(I'm in my 50's, and have been driving for over 30 years. My only "at fault" claim in all that time has been a very minor bump in a car park.)
I'm also thinking about travel insurance - though I think the usual approach is simply to exclude any claims caused by the condition that one declares.
Has anyone found particular insurers are that are especially ADHD friendly (or ADHD hostile?).
I'd be interested in anyone's experiences;
thanks,
P

I have been driving for 18 yrs and haven't bothered to declare it. Probably should? I did mention it to my insurance company and they were not bothered either, it didn't seem relevant.

Read your policy document. It will tell you if you need to notify. But health is not normally an underwriting factor in insurance, unless you've been told by a medical professional that you're not fit to drive.
If you tell your insurer, and don't tell dvla, you might find there was a problem if you are involved in an incident in the future.

Hi;
thanks for the replies;
I'll check my policy doc, and ask Docs if they anticipate any driving problems.
P.
