I'm no expert on this, but I know that there are new rules in place regarding prescribed medication. If there is more in your system than prescribed it's bad I think. As I said, I am NO expert here, but I am sure someone will be able to help. I'll try a bit of research myself, I have never had a drunk driving ban though.

I know  someone that had been banned from driving after being involved in an accident after using Un - prescribed di@z.She had to put in 12 months of supervised urine samples to get her licence back,the samples had to be clean of all drugs including hash ect.She got there in the end but it was not an easy thing for her to do....

Peace

I've been banned but long ago. The doctors have now had new guidelines and habe to report on people who have benzos and opioids who they consider to not be to,era t to these drugs. My GP has cleared me due to the longterm use and has written to say that I am not impaired by the drugs. I do however habe to stay within the prescribed limits. The bottles of oramorph habe written on them that you are breaking the law on driving if you habe more than prescribed, in your bloodstream. My advice is if you decide to have a day of recreational use then leave the car alone and, to be safe, maybe a coup,e of days more. Your insurance will be void and you will do time. 

I will ask my GP about testing as this could be pertinent for me
