    They advise 2 weeks before you can drive. I did drive 3 days post op but only because it was 3am and there was a family emergency. Didn’t do it again till 2 weeks though as it was hard doing manouvers and changing gears x

    I’m now POD 18 and I drove once over the weekend. It was OK but I did have to swap hand when changing into 5th gear. I’d definitely say wait until 2 weeks post op (at least)!
