I drove after day 8. I’d had a BA and uplift. I drive an automatic so don’t do much once I’m on the move!!! I must admit tho I found steering really pulled on my chest and it was sore to look behind, I only did a short journey on day 8 round trip about 8 miles. It was hard to open and close the door…..and don’t use in the boot!!!!
On reflection I think 2 weeks and by week 3 you should be fine.
Hope that helps xxx
