A quick bump on this thread.
Insurance:
I sent an e-mail to Gott and Wynne for the Morgan policies, and their response was that they have noted the file. I thought an e-mail is better to record the event,
For LV, where our VWs are insured, e-mail is probably impossible, so I rang, got straight through and related the story. LV do not require medical disclosures. They expect policyholders to follow medical advice. That was a bit of a surprise, but there you go.
DVLA is a bit more confusing. If you attempt to notify them after a stroke, you will arrive at a page, which does not allow progression, UNLESS the stroke was over 40 days ago. After my successful congnitive test, I was informed in writing that I was not required to notify DLVA.
I won't attempt to second guess the reasons why, other than to say that if there are 46,000 TIAs annually in the UK, those numbers alone would overwhelm the system when many pass within hours. But it appears that if you remain incapacitated beyond 40 days then it becomes notifiable.
