To report someone I know is driving with no license?

NC as possibly outing and going to try and keep details to a minimum for same reason.

I work with someone who is epileptic so has to renew their license every 12 months, the job we do involves driving big vans. He never told us he was epileptic when he joined we have only just found out due to him having no license atm (long story but basically he was boasting to another employee who told the boss) Boss is very cross and obviously not letting him drive the vans but the person leaves in a fortnight so we are happy to leave it there wrt work. The person also works in a bar at weekends.

Work found this out on Friday and today is my first day back in (been ill) so I have only found out today. He has driven his car to and from work everyday since Friday (and before) and his license actually ran out mid July. He says he has a GP appointment in September to have a medical to get his license back but I have absolutely no idea what this involves/how long it takes between seeing GP and having license back.

The person also often drinks after work (2or3 pints) and then drives home. Having recently had a car written off by an unlicensed uninsured driver and losing just over £2000 from the whole thing, this has touched a nerve with me and I don't think they should be driving. I also don't like the person very much so this could be clouding my judgement.

So WIBU to report them for driving with no license or should I just let it go because he can drive and did have a license he just seems to be being lax about getting it renewed.

there have been huge delays recently

I’ve been waiting months since my latest application as they do insist on writing to my neurosurgeon, who is busy saving lives, refusing to take my GPs word for the fact that my brain tumour hasn’t come back and I haven’t had a seizure.

I’d be pissed off if the process was slowed down further by people making unwarranted reports to the DVLA before making a basic check on the facts surrounding this. Hmm
