What do I need to train a disabled pupil in their dual-controlled car?

You’ll need to check your insurance policy, as standard business insurance may not cover training in an adapted vehicle. You can either:

  1. Upgrade your policy to include adapted vehicle training.
  2. Be added as a named driver on the pupil’s insurance for “training and assessment” purposes.

Additionally, ensure you’re competent to provide the necessary specialised training and consider the pupil’s medical needs, such as medication and fatigue levels.
