An accompanying driver must be 23 years or over and must have held a full and valid UK or EU driving licence for a minimum of three years. If the accompanying driver has points on their licence, please check with the branch prior to hiring, to ensure the driver is eligible.

The accompanying driver must be qualified to drive the type of vehicle being driven by the learner, i.e., they must have a manual licence if they are supervising the learner in a manual car. Insurance is provided for both the learner and the full licence holder but not for Hire and Reward, meaning that qualified driving instructors are unable to accompany learner drivers in a professional capacity.

If you are a qualified driving instructor, please contact us for further details on what options are available to you.
