A 58-year-old man with type 2 diabetes attends the diabetes clinic. His HbA1c is 78 mmol/mol (20–41) despite maximum tolerated metformin, gliclazide and sitagliptin. You agree with him to start once-daily basal insulin today. He drives a car daily as a sales representative. He has normal hypoglycaemia awareness, has had no severe hypoglycaemia and has no visual problems. He says he has never told the DVLA about his diabetes.
