Physical Disability

Learning to drive and having to pass a test with a physical difficulty can feel an impossible task, but with the right support, understanding of your individual needs and where appropriate vehicle adaptions, getting on the road is an achievable ambition. 

Access Driving has an adapted automatic car that along with all the standard controls has the following adaptions:


  • Left Foot accelerator 
  • Standard push pull hand control with integrated indicator switch (push brake, pull accelerator) 
  • Steering ball
  • SmartSteer secondary steering control (indicators, horn, headlamp dip/flash and wipers/washers) 


For those with more complex needs, I am happy to carry out lessons in your own adapted vehicle. 


Each student’s needs are different, so I work with the individual to understand how their condition affects them, how pain and tiredness can be an added complication and how best to support them in achieving their goals. I have worked with students with a wide range of physical disabilities and/or restrictions, including:


  • Missing Limbs/Amputation 
  • Cerebral Palsy
  • Multiple Sclerosis
  • Crohn’s Disease 
  • Chronic Fatigue 
  • Osteoarthritis
  • Stroke 
  • Brain Injury 
  • Chronic Pain
  • Surgical Complications 
  • Mobility Issues 


Access Driving provides:


  • A safe and non-judgmental environment to learn and gain confidence. 
  • Specialist driving lessons, with understanding of the student’s needs, to help them learn how to be a safe driver and pass their driving test.
  • A bespoke service capable of working with the student’s support network if desired.
  • Expert guidance and tailored help in getting additional support from the DVSA during the theory and practical test if necessary. 
  • Tailored post-test help and support, if needed, to get you driving confidently in your own car.
