I received a letter stating due to my medical checkup, there would be a corrective lenses restriction put on my licence. This is incorrect, I do not need lenses and my checkup passed me with flying colors.
I will get this sorted out on monday, my company says I cannot go out until this is sorted out. No problem, I understand. My question is, what would be the ramifications if I didn't? I mean, receiving a ticket or a "warning" wouldn't really matter, but getting into a serious accident, even if not at fault, could matter. That would worry me the most by far, and I feel it isn't worth the risk.

well if the eye doc says you dont need glasses to drive, some states have a vision certification form that you can have the eye doctor sign and the dmv will accept it just as they did an eye test at the dmv. when i have to renew my license i will just get the form filled out by my eye doc and save hassle at the dmv.

Most likely, you would receive a citation and get placed out of service.
